Description

This wine is a powerhouse with a powerful message. At the risk of dating myself, I ask the question, “is Foch the Dangerfield of wines?” “No respect. No respect at all!” We’ve had fun with this varietal as you will remember and now this “serious wine” with a “serious label” is making its second appearance. It is full, rich and has an amazing concentration of blackberry and cassis. A haunting note of coffee and hardwood smoke wafts through the full berry nose while the sparky acidity keeps everything focussed and bright. A light and mature tannin structure gives the wine just the right heft to easily accompany your favourite comfort foods. This might be a wine that “gets no respect” but like Dangerfield, it will always keep you coming back for more. There is a true, light-hearted charm that cannot be denied.
