#AgedWineTuesday

Inky in color with a short reddish rim. Not showing much age.

Strong nose of red and black fruits with cedar, licorice, coffee, light earth, herbs, tobacco leaf, dark chocolates, eucalyptus and mediterranean spices.

Full-bodied with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry and very fruity on the palate with blackberries, black plums, cooked cherries, cedar, licorice, light vanilla, tobacco, herbs, spices, light cola, chocolates and peppercorn.

Long finish with soft tannins and tangy raspberries.

This gorgeous 13 year old Cabernet Franc based Bordeaux blend from Coombsville in Napa Valley is drinking at its peak now. Rich, extracted and 'in your face' kind of wine. Nicely balanced and very complex.

The Carmenere is very dominant right now, and it feels more like a Napa Merlot. Will continue to drink nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.

Delicious right out of the bottle, and even better after 45 minutes of airtime.

A great sipping wine that will also pair nicely with food.

A blend of 51% Cabernet Franc, 32% Carmenere, 14% Cabernet Sauvignon and 3% Merlot. Aged in all new French oak barrels. A tiny production of 1,044 bottles.

15% alcohol by volume.

93 points.

Primarily Cabernet Sauvignon with small amounts (6%) of Merlot and Malbec blended in. Dark ruby color. Aromas of black cherry/currants, violets and toffee. The palate is also black fruit focused with additional flavors of chocolate, black licorice and black pepper. Touch of vanilla and fresh herbs on the medium length finish. The tannins have smoothed out and the acidity is quite bright. More medium bodied and subtly sweet. Easy drinker. — 2 years ago

Wow! Went to a tasting at the winery and enjoyed a bottle of this overlooking their vineyard. This Oliver (Black Sage Road) BC Merlot was aged in French Oak and is just fabulous! Absolutely love it! — 7 years ago

2016 was a warm year in the Okanagan Valley.
Block 4 shows more red fruit compared to Block 2 which is blue fruit inclined.
The vines are 23 years old.
Dark cherry red in the glass with earthy flavours of cherries, dark raspberries, dried herbs and anice.
This wine has a lingering finish that stays for with you for several minutes. We pizza from scratch (our own dough) with local Matsutake mushrooms and thinly sliced local duck breast.
Life is good. — 5 years ago

Love this stuff! Always so incredibly enjoyable. This is a wine that I can sit back and relax as it’s not overly complex, but that’s what makes it so great. Fruit all over the spectrum, with cedar and spice, Andes mint, and silky in structure. Pop and pour! — 8 years ago

2017 vintage.
This was a year greatly impacted by forest fires in Okanagan valley though this wine seems to be unaffected by these fires.
Raspberries, tobacco, pomegranate and leather on the nose.
Dark black fruits with plums and dark cherries in abundance.
Juicy and lively with nice acidity on the finish. — 3 years ago

It’s a new new economy so I grabbed this to budget down while hunkering down. I had low expectations and they were exceeded! At $14.99 you even get a bit of Rutherford dust. — 6 years ago
