Another great Bordeaux blend from the Okanagan Valley. Smooth and velvety. .Rich with flavors of dark berries without any harsh acidity..love to buy more and cellar it for 2 years!!!!

Not generally a red fan I tried this at the winery and was pleasantly surprised at how smooth it is. It was served slightly chilled with a pour spout aerator and I found it had no harsh tannins, no burn in the throat & not too dry.

Medium tannins and acidity. Lovely vanilla and chocolate aromas as well as some dried fruits. Well worth the $30 from this newer okanagan winery. They recently lost about 85% of their vineyard due to a bad hailstorm. But I'm sure they will make it through because they have some fantastic wines. This one is a Bordeaux blend dominated by Merlot. Love it.

Big wine that needs some time to breath or maybe another 3-4 years in the bottle. Good wine tho from a new small winery in BC
