Collaboration between Time winery and Henry Mcwatters. Time winery is located in Penticton. They don’t grow their own grapes, rather they purchase grapes from surrounding vineyards in the Okanagan. This is a medium to bold wine that is well balanced with medium tannin. A mix of Cabernet Sauvignon 50%, merlot 35%, and Cab Franc 15%, matured in French oak for 15 months. Dark fruits, mostly blackberry, black currants and some blueberries, followed by mild acidity and round filling tannin. Some hints of tobacco at the back of the palate. Very enjoyable, dark fruit heavy wine. Can be enjoyed on its own or with meat centric dishes (duck, goose, steak). Lacks the complexity to push my rating over 9, but it’s a fair value wine that is delicious. 13.9% alcohol. Cheers! It’s pretty much in its prime now, and could cellar for another 3 years.
