Tasting Notes
Cabernet driven. 38% Cabernet Sauvignon, 24% Cabernet Franc, 38% Merlot. 90% Osoyoos, 10% Oliver. This is really refined and harmonious with ripe, sweet cherry, blackberry and blackcurrant fruit, with smooth but present tannins and a very luxurious mouthfeel. It's sweetly fruited and accessible, but there's lovely layers of structures. Has real complexity and texture. Approachable now but with a bright future to it. This wine is all about precision in the vineyard and attention to detail. Natural fruit sweetness and a dancing texture; has width and also length. A step up for this wine. Score - 95.
