Pentâge Winery Gamay Noir 2015

Skaha Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaAlluring forest berries, Italian plum, thorny blackberry, cassis jam through this darker-hued gamay noir, one owning its sun-given powers with élan. There's an alluring fine slick of mineral salts that line the palate of this medium-bodied red, with grips of herbal branch and licks of light peppercorn. The palate is soft, but not heavy, and lingers with fine smoked salts. Well done, especially with a decant or some time to expand in the glass. Best enjoyed with pork tenderloin or rabbit.Tasted: 09 November 2017Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
