This South African variety (Cinsault crossed with Pinot Noir) has its fans and its critics, but when you talk about this rare variety in British Columbia, Stoneboat is usually the first to spring to mind.
It's a wonderful blend of exuberant strawberry and sweet blueberry aromas, carob and peppery spices with grilled wild herbal notes. Expect smooth dark carob and berry flavours, roasted coffee beans and smoked spices. Good intensity and balance to keep it bright on the palate.
