My Strength Rating: 4/4.5
Baco Noir is pronounced: BA-koh NWAHR
I can remember stopping by this winery back when they first opened up. The wine was the usual start-up wine taste a little on the thin side. Well, now is the time to stop on by this little winery. I have sampled a few of their wines and I have enjoyed them. I enjoyed the Bird Dog Red so much I went back and bought four more bottles.
Appearance: Garnet with ruby crystal highlights
Aroma: plump big dark berry notes and a whiff of oak
Flavors: this is a fruit forward wine here for the taking. Mulberry, touch of blueberry, hint of boysenberry, red currants, and sweet cedar. The tannins are low, which it should be for a Baco, and the acidic level is pleasing, which can be high for a young Baco Noir.
