Henry Of Pelham Reserve Baco Noir 2010, VQA Ontario
Other Red
Ontario, Canada
$24.95 (461699)
This is a super-ripe and classy baco ... with all that ripe, rich, plummy and spicy fruit. There is some meatiness as well with oak vanillin, fine acidity and excellent length. The wine is balanced and supple enough to enjoy now wherever you would normally drink a big red – think roasts, stews, anything with cheddar. But Pelham’s Baco Reserve is also one of the longestlived reds made in Ontario, so consider cellaring at least one bottle beyond 2020. Decant and let breathe for at least 30 minutes as well. Score: 90 (David Lawrason, torontolife.com, Sept. 13, 2012)

2010 was a great year and this is one of the finest Baco's produced by HOP and in Niagara in general. It is smokey on the nose, but rich and elegant on the palate. It is much more complex than the Baco's from 2007-2009 and as such will age well for 2-4 years at least. An age worthy Baco at $25? That's a good buy.
