WineDiva's Review

Berries, fresh, spiced.
The Cab Franc grapes came from the Burrowing Owl Vineyard in Oliver and the estate Eva's Vineyard in Osoyoos. Post fermentation the wine was moved into separate mixed origin barrels for malolactic fermentation followed by 15 months of ageing.
Wild red berries, leather, tobacco, cedar and dried wild flower aromas mingle with sage, thyme and peppery spices. It's medium-full bodied with cherry wood, earth, brown spice, leather, charred tobacco and green cedar flavours. Good freshness here, with a somewhat bitter finish.


Pairs great with Gone Crackers Blue Cheese & Cracked Pepper
 
 
Recommended Pairings
Rich Meats , GONE CRACKERS, Good First Impressions, Cellar Keepers
