Tasting Notes
This topped the huge Red Blend category (115 wines) at the 2011 Canadian Wine Awards, helping vault Painted Rock into position as the top ranked B.C. wine in the competition. It features a very compelling, lifted nose with cabernet front and centre - expressed as blackcurrant-cassis jam, with roasted herbs, dark chocolate, vague smoke and olive nuances. I love the idea of putting some syrah in the blend, filling the crevices without taking over. It's medium-full bodied with great poise and tension. The back end is still fairly tannic, earthy and mineral, again with cabernet dominating the landscape. The length is excellent. I would sit on it at least two years; should drink well for a decade or more. It reminds me a bit of a cabernet-based Bolgheri super-Tuscan. Score - 93. (David Lawrason, winealign.com, Jan. 2012)
