Frind Estate Big Red 2018
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaBig Red blends Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon, aged for a year in a mix of French and American oak. Big, ripe black fruit is seasoned with toasted wood, wrapping around a dense, savoury, smooth cassis core, and gripped with ragged, cedar-dusted tannins that dry out on a warming vanillin finish. This needs some grilled red meats or root veg to tuck in with.Tasted: 11 November 2020Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:BC | $23.00 | 750ml | winery direct |
