Stag's Hollow Simply Noir, Okanagan Valley, BC
Readers rated this wine:
Bright, berries, charming.
This cultural proprietary blend of Gamay, Pinot, Dolcetto and Zweigelt comes from vineyards in the sub-GI of Okanagan Falls (designated in 2018) where Stag's Hollow is located and Keremeos in the Similkameen Valley.
Stag's Hollow describes this as a bistro wine and I wholeheartedly agree; it is refreshing, food friendly and charming. A nose of raspberry, cherry and strawberry, star anise, vanilla and cedar leads to a juicy light-medium bodied palate. Slick, with good levity, it has flavours of fine peppery spices and tealeaf trailing on the finish. Congrats to Stag's Hollow, which celebrates 25 years in 2020!
Pair: white meats, oily fish, hearty salads, vegetable tarts and cheeses. ©copyright 2020 Daenna Van Mulligen
