Opinions about wine differ greatly as the experience is subjective. You may find it helpful to compare this critical evaluation of the wine with mine as well as your own:
Plume Winery is a joint venture between the Stewart family of BC’s Quails’ Gate winery and Napa Valley’s Daniel Zepponi. The project is a first for any Okanagan producer. This is Plume’s debut wine. 90% Cabernet Sauvignon, fleshed out with Petit Verdot, Petite Sirah, Malbec and a dash of Merlot. The wine spent 18 months in barrel (most of them used barrels) and is structured to be accessible now with the ability to age for five or six more years. The aromas and fruit flavours (cherry, red plum) are bright and spicy. The wine shows the classically ripe flavours of Napa Cabernet. Score: 90 Source: John Schreiner, johnschreiner.blogspot.com
