A smoky blend of crushed raspberries, sage, cola and crushed stones creates a seductive bouquet as the 2019 Pinot Noir La Source comes to life in the glass. This is soft yet lifted in feel, with tart red and blue fruits that swirl throughout as violet inner florals resonate toward the close. The 2019 finishes perfumed and long with an air of lavender and a tart blackberry twang that lingers over a bed of well-rounded tannins. This is the first vintage in which Sashi Moorman was entirely happy with the structural balance achieved in the Pinot Noir La Source. I must admit, it's a compelling wine.

Seven Directions Fruitvale Ridge Vineyard Cabernet Franc Rosé 2021: Medium-bodied. High acidity. Clean fresh taste. Notes of raspberry, strawberry, lime, green herbs, & gravel. Nice crisp minerality on the finish. Overall, a dry & fruity rosé that leaves your wanting more. A perfect bottle selection after a long day of walking the entire Stanley Park Seawall Path. Evening consisted of a mellow dinner at the hotel with the final glass back in the room. This concludes our truly fun & memorable time in Vancouver. Love this city & all the various local wine offerings. Now the challenge begins to find more BC wines in the US. Great weekend to all! Cheers🍷 — 4 years ago

This is a very good wine and with more air and better glasses probably moves up a point or two. Went very well with food and is not just a sit and contemplate wine. Not sure it needed a decant but clearly more air. — 18 hours ago
