Wonders of Wine and Food

 

It is not an easy task to find a bottle of Ontario wine in BC. In fact, even the liquor store manager was unaware of the wine. So, of course, I had no choice but to purchase the wine.

I bought the wine home with the intention of sharing it with friends. The plan was to get together between Christmas and the New Year.  However, they chose to go to Hawaii instead. Their loss!

So I kept this bottle of Baco Noir VQA from Henry of Pelham on the shelf. The day will come.

As the days passed. I could see the bottle lying in the wine rack. There was an urge to open it.

Henry of Pelham is a renowned family winery located in the Short Hills Bench app It was established in 1988 by Paul Speck Sr. Baco Noir is its flag ship wine.

The wine would not lay on the shelf much longer. I was ready to open it. So mark the date January 15th 2026. Ontario cones to White Rock, British Columbia. 

On a scale of one to ten the wine was a 9.. A full body wine with aromas of Blackberry Vanilla beans, and white chocolate. On the palate silky tannins, black fruit berries with  slight touch of sweetness.

More Please!
