Noble Ridge Vineyard & Winery

Meritage Blend 2016

This was the last of the ten wineries we visited. We were “done”. We bought a few bottles and opened the first a while later and it was SO GOOD! Better than we remembered. This BC Bordeaux (Meritage) blend of Merlot, Cab Sauv, Malbec & Cab Franc. BC was impressive. — 6 years ago

Laughing Stock Vineyards

Portfolio Merlot Blend 2012

Laughing stock and specifically portfolio remains one of my favourite BC wines. It’s composed of 45% Merlot, 25% Cab Sav, 22% Cab Franc, 7% Malbec, 1% petit Verdot. The 2012 vintage is still holding well. Dark plums, cherries, raspberries. medium earthiness, mild cigar box followed by red peppers spices, cloves and anise. It is just past it’s peak but still holding well. Should drink within the next year. — 7 years ago

Great wine, and I'd love to try some of the older ones. I have some after 2012.. Cheers 🍷

@AgeyFixey agree! Had a good stock of the 2006 vintage (finished last year) which maintained its structure extraordinarily well, better than the 2012.

Kettle Valley

Pinot Gris 2015

On par with great BC pg. green Apple and citrus nose with subtle hints of brown sugar, sweet basil, toffee.

Strawberry, cranberry, raspberry and apple mouth. Slightly (really slightly) oily mouthfeel. Good line of necessary acidity to give it zip and hold the structure together. Honey on the finish. Finish is long, but could be longer.

River Stone Estate Winery

Corner Stone Okanagan Valley Merlot Blend 2015

Well balanced southern BC red blend from Oliver. Didn’t know anything about this wine while drinking. Nor did those I was drinking with. It was a gift. I commented that it was easily the quality of a $30 bottle. You won’t find it in the states and lucky to find in Canada for that matter. Vineyard produces limited number of cases. They state their 2016 vintage at 500 cases. If you do find it, BUY IT! — 6 years ago

@Stuart Scheff Stuart you are always welcome to come up here and smell them straight on. I buy the first couple of rounds. But may I suggest the summer, it’s hard to smell nature at -30F . Cheers 🍷🇨🇦🇺🇸

1996 Screaming Eagle. Decanted for about an hour bc the cork fell into the bottle. No hints of being over the hill. No vanilla or oak. Tons of plum, raspberry. Maybe a bit thin at the end palate. Note- do not decant next time, just open and let it breathe. — 7 years ago
