WineDiva's Review

Elegant, structure, lengthy.
Similkameen Valley's Clos du Soleil makes classic minimal-intervention wines from vines tended with biodynamic practices.
This premium red is a blend of Merlot (25%), Cab Sauv (31%), Cab Franc (14%), Petit Verdot 11%) and Malbec (19%) aged 18 months in French oak barrels.
This premium wine, their top-tier red, delivers notes of fresh wild herbs and wildberries, leather, tobacco, cocoa, pencil shavings and a hint of purple flowers. In the mouth, lifted red fruits dominate (current, plum, berry) alongside pipe tobacco, leather and spice flavours. Elegant, lengthy and smooth with a tobacco flecked finish.


Pairs great with Gone Crackers Canadian Chedder & Chive
