TN: 2013 Henry of Pelham Baco Noir, Ontario VQA.
Local winestore downtown and other businesses on 104 St had a customer appreciation evening where generous discounts were offered to those mingling the area. I had a chance to try a few wines being poured by 4/5 reps but really enjoyed this new vintage from Henry of Pelham.
Deep crimson in color with black cherries, plums, smoke on the nose. Softish tannins, black cherry, brambly fruit, medium-bodied and very pleasing aftertaste. I thought it had a very nice balance but always enjoy the rustic elements. The wine continues to be quite distinct but I did have some fun pouring a few punters a sample of Black Hills Syrah from the Okanagan. That really got `em going, grin wink.
