Thornhaven has continuously impressed BC wine drinkers with this Barrel Reserve Pinot Noir. It is an old-world style with primary aromas of forest floor and compost, sour cherries and loads of cedar with hints of white pepper. It's light bodied with tart red fruit and spice flavours and shows fine tannins, nice elegance with pepper on the finish.©copyright 2009 Daenna Van Mulligen

An interesting orange-y-amber hue with aromas of candied berries, summer fruits and creamy vanilla notes with undertones of sweet herbs and spices. Silky on the palate showing flavours of melon rind, candies citrus peel, berries and sweet herbs with spiced vanilla and just a hint of caramel that lingers.
An off-dry wine that will pair with creamy cheeses, spiced curries and hot tamales!

One of the most refreshing wines I tasted at the recent 23rd Annual People's Choice Awards in Kelowna in September.
The best way to describe it is "grapefruit-y". The initial aromas are of plump, juicy pink grapefruits with a hint of citrus "pop" and minerals. On the palate it's slightly off-dry but with lovely balanced mouth-watering acidity, a hint of spice and more lovely grapefruit on the finish.
A palate cleanser and an afternoon sipping delight.

Prettily hued in a salmonish shade. A similar leesy/yeasty nose as the Chard/Sauv above but with softer fruit and mineral aromas. Fresh and zippy citrus flavours slightly austere in the fruit department with just a hint of spritz.
