Hester Creek The Judge 2022

Golden Mile Bench, Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe Judge is crafted from old vines dating back to 1968. This blend is 47% merlot, 34% cabernet franc, 17% cabernet sauvignon, 1% petit verdot, and 1% malbec. Starting with warm autumn leaves, this moves into rounded, savoury edged baked cherry, plum, and baking spice. The flavours are fairly developed, showing resolved velvety tannins, graphite, savoury black cherry, cedar, and vanilla. Harmonious and balanced, there's a very agreeable partnership here between the roundness of the merlot and the dustier fruit of cabernet franc.Tasted: 27 April 2026Tasted by: Prices:
