Reviews and Ratings

Craig Haynes - WSET3 FWS SWS IWS rated this wine as 93/100 with the following review:

When I opened this 2010 in Spring 2022, this thought immediately crossed my mind. “I should have bought more bottles of this vintage years ago when I had the chance. Sugar snaps.” I had this thought because this wine’s aroma + flavour + feel profile is something to talk about.

From British Columbia’s Okanagan Valley appellation, this creation’s hushed and dazzling aromas of stewed dark fruit, leather, cedar and spice complement its deep, beautiful flavours. In my glass, those flavours evoke blackberries and black cherries infused with savouriness. Delicious.

What’s more, this red feels fantastic. Medium bodied, dry, velvety texture, with minute tannin presence.

What's the blend bill? It is almost equal parts Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot (41% / 38%) with Cabernet Franc being the third and final grape.
