Rich violet hue with elegant legs. Nose is smoke, cured meat, vegetal, with tobacco but densely sweet blackberry at the center. Invitingly lush warm and supple palate with some tobacco and stewed fruit. Very yummy. Paired with bbq cheese-burgers — 6 days ago

Big and juicy with rich, brambly black fruit pushing up from the bottom, but the meaty, smoky tones are little intense. Paired with beef short rib and roasted veg. — 6 months ago

70% Semillon and 30% Chardonnay, the Semillon creates a rich and herbaceous palate, with hints of toffee and caramel. The Chardonnay provides notes of Okanagan peach and some lime, creating a very interesting and complex white wine. Loved it with our pan seared red snapper on a bed of leek and lemon risotto. — 7 months ago

Deep violet hue, elegant legs. Nose has a rich floral bouquet of violets with spicy bramble berry perfume and a subtle hint of cherry nibs. Palate is outstanding for a 2016 (although probably has peaked) with flavours of dried fruit, prune, cedar and playful, well balanced tannins. — 15 days ago

9.2

A nice minerality, lemon and its zest, a hint of green apple, a perfect amount of oak and touch of butteriness but definitely restrained as one would expect in an old world Chardonnay. Lovely. — 7 months ago
