Savoury, fresh, organic.
Covert Farms is a regeneratively-farmed 650-acre fourth-generation, family-owned organic farm and winery estate located just north of Oliver.
The Amicitia is a Merlot (35%), Cabernet Sauvignon (28%), Cab Franc (16%), Malbec (11%), Petit Verdot (8%) and Syrah (2%) blend aged 14 months in French and American oak.
Notes of tobacco and dried cherry are woven with creamy dark chocolate, violets, coffee, ground spices, vanilla and wild sage. It has a supple entry with flavours to echo the nose then it grows more textural toward the finish. Nicely integrated good freshness and balance.
Second review: December 2023Chocolate covered plums and Christmas cake, toasted baking spices and licorice, leather and pipe tobacco aromas lead to a supple palate with primary earthy flavours. Leather, toasted spice and coffee flavours line the palate. The finish is remains textural seven months after my last review.
