Henry Of Pelham Estate Cabernet/Merlot 2015, VQA Short Hills Bench, Niagara Escarpment Bottle
Henry Of Pelham Estate Cabernet/Merlot 2015, VQA Short Hills Bench, Niagara Escarpment
Ontario, Canada
$24.95

Seems well-made to me. Found it to be juicy, mildly tannnic with a touch of dried fruits indicating some maturity. Raspberry on the nose, more like cherry on the palate. Good acidity and balance.

A firm, structured wine with good berry fruit and a nice creaminess. Showing little age at 7 years. Definitely a wine to serve with food.

First time for this grape. Found a rustic feel with good berry fruit, some jammy, medium tannins with leather on the nose and palate. Nicely balanced. Suitable to drink with food. LIked the finish.

Found it to be melon and mineral with a little bit of floral showing. Rich texture and very smooth. Suited more for food rather than sipping on its own.

Nice richness and body. Apple cider with a bit of pear and citrus. Subtle but elegant.

Mascota Vineyards Gran Mascota Malbec 2015, Mendoza Bottle
Mascota Vineyards Gran Mascota Malbec 2015, Mendoza

All youthful in appearance yet completely drinkable now. Full body with raspberry and oak on the nose, and good depth of flavour on the palate. Med acidity and oh so mouth-coating.
