The fruit was hand-picked from two unique vineyard sites: Anarchist Mountain Vineyard in Osoyoos, originally planted in 1994, and Ryegrass Road Vineyard in Oliver, planted in 2009. It is a blend of 87% Merlot and 13% Cabernet Franc.
Displaying aromas of blueberry, blackberry, and violets with a compelling black peppercorn note. The palate reveals big flavours of dark roasted coffee, leather, and tobacco with a touch of youthful and slightly tart cherries. The tannins are velvety with structure and there is length in the finish. Elegant and approachable with many layers, why wait… open and enjoy this wine now. Enjoy this wine now or within the next 2 to 4 years.
