Black fruit and smoke on the nose of this robust BC red wine blend of 60% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Franc and 30% Cabernet Sauvignon. It was aged 12 months in French and American oak. The grapes come from a 22 acre vineyard in the southern Okanagan Valley known as the Golden Mile. Pair with a grilled steak.

Reviews and Ratings

Jon Steeves - Sommelier rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Beautiful to pair with a BBQ steak, this well balanced Okanagan meritage blend is ready to enjoy. Pair with roasted / grilled red meats, gourmet burgers, or Tex mex. Medium full body, silky smooth medium tannins. Ruby red gem. Tasted the 2015 vintage in April 2019. 90 points
