Description
Donald Triggs (one of the original co-founders of the winery) and his wife Elaine planted Jackson-Triggs' premium Delaine Vineyards in 1999 (the name is amalgamation of their names). Now in its eighth vintage, this very elegant Bordeaux-style blend, from the much-vaunted 2010 vintage, offers blackcurrant and cherry fruit flavours and ripe tannic structure. Enjoy with prime rib now or cellar for 3-5+ years.

Tasting Notes
Big black fruit and mocha-dark chocolate aromas from generous oak aging. Rich, concentrated and deep with a long finish. Some tarry notes notes through a dark core. Great with a juicy steak. Score - 91. (Natalie MacLean, nataliemaclean.com, Sept. 13, 2013)
