Founded in 2001 by winemaker Ted Kane, River Stone is a small estate winery located in Oliver BC. It's comprised of two estate vineyards: River Rock, the 10-acre home vineyard planted in 2003; Boulder City Vineyard purchased in 2020 and planted in 2005. The estate focuses primarily on Bordeaux-varieties and aromatic whites.
The Stone's Throw is a blend of Merlot (73%), Cabernet Sauvignon (11%), Malbec (12%) and Petit Verdot (4%) grown in the River Rock Vineyard.
Cherry and juicy red berry aromas are woven with pencil shavings, vanilla, cedar, violets, wild herbs and sweet spice notes. Fresh and medium-bodied it delivers bright red fruit, fine spice and tobacco on the palate.
Wine was aged in French oak (33% new) for approx. 14 months.
