WineDiva's Review

Fleshy, savoury, classic.
This Bordeaux-blend of (68%) Merlot, (2%) Cabernet Franc and (30%) Cabernet Sauvignon is made from estate and Okanagan fruit.
Expect aromas of black currents and wild forest berries, cigar and pencil shavings atop savoury spices. It has a sweet fleshy entry and flavours of spice, leather and tobacco. Good balance overall, a classic Bordeaux-stye blend.
A wine for meat and plant-based meat alternatives, hard cheeses and hearty dishes.


 
Recommended Pairings
Rich Meats , Barbeque, Cheese - Semi Hard / Medium
