"DATE: 04-11-09 (tasted during 2009 Ontario Wine Awards Judging Appearance: Purple / inky.
Nose: Big foch nose blue/cranberry, sweet oak, rich herbal notes.
Palate: Dry with moderate acidity, midweight plus. Palate follows the nose. Rich fruit and gentle tannins on the midpalate. The finish is long clean and soft.
Conclusions: Modern style of Foch for now or six years from now. You won't overmatch this baby with a well-stuffed burger!" lfw
FROM THE PRODUCERS:"Definitely not for the faint of heart, yet still approachable, this Foch is our first red release from the 2007 vintage. Showing jammy fruit notes balanced by a distinct gaminess, yet finishing with cocoa dusted blueberries, this wine is a challenge to your taste buds!"
