Vineyard Notes
The 2023 vintage was defined by the extremes. An extremely cold winter led to bud damage and reduced yields, while the summer was threatened by wildfires in the north and south. While temperatures exceeded 40°C on several occasions in the South Okanagan, the summer felt cooler than previous years. Temperatures between 33°C and 38°C are optimal growing conditions for our Bordeaux blends and aromatic whites. Due to fewer clusters and full canopies, this led to an earlier start for harvest beginning on September 18th with our Rosé pick. Even though tonnages were lower than previous vintages, overall, the fruit quality across the board was excellent. The flavour profile and the phenolic development shone through resulting in electric flavourful fruit for the white varieties and concentrated, structured reds.
Winemaker Notes
Hand-picked off Pheasant Run Vineyard in Kaleden, BC between September 18th - September 30th. The fruit was gently pressed and only the best juice was taken. Racked of its heavy lees and fermented slowly down over an 11-week period with maximum fermentation temperatures only reaching 10°C to preserve the delicate aromatics. The final blend consists of 87% stainless steel tank and 13% neutral barrique, aged on lees for 5-months. A unique blend, that pushes the boundaries, this Zweigelt dominant Rosé also contains a small amount of Merlot, Pinotage, and Malbec. Undergoing a slow and long, primary fermentation allowing the wines freshness and clean crisp flavors to shine through.
