Black Hills Estate Nota Bene Meritage Selection (4 bottles)

Black Hills Estate Nota Bene Meritage 2008
Okanagan Valley, Red Bordeaux Blend
750 ml / Canada / 14.2% ABV

“I am very pleased with the 2008 Nota Bene and how it displays such a great spectrum of flavors. On the nose I pick up bright aromas of cassis, plum and raspberry. I get a rich and smooth sensation on the palate with notes of mocha, spice and forest floor. This wine has great balance and structure with a velvety mouth feel and a nice long finish.”
Graham Pierce, Winemaker

Black Hills Estate Nota Bene Meritage 2009 (3 bottles)
Okanagan Valley, Red Bordeaux Blend
750 ml / Canada / 14.1% ABV

“The 2009 growing season gave us amazing ripe fruit with great  avour and smooth developed tannins. The nose exhibits bright red fruit with plum and cassis. The rich palate displays complex black cherry, strawberry and dark cocoa. This wine has great balance, soft silky tannin and a smooth long finish. Can be decanted and enjoyed now and has great cellaring potential.”
Graham Pierce, Winemaker
