4/19/2024 - CDT Likes this wine: 88 pointsSlightly darker than pale lemon in colour with aromas of blossoms, pear & pineapple. On the palate, medium bodied citrus/lemon, pear, pineapple, blossoms, brioche, hint nuts, medium acidity with a long finish to slightly oaky, saline, chalky minerality. The small degree of malolactic fermentation definitely adds to the freshness, but this vintage seems oakier than previous ones. |

4/15/2024 - BPaff Likes this wine: 92 pointsPlums, dark berries, dried mint and sage, cigar box/tobacco, well integrated wood - a bit of baking spice and some mocha/coffee grinds. Lots of character, very restrained and balanced. |

Would have preferred this with a piece of meat. Partner loved the wine, I enjoyed but I am thinking we drank it too soon. Love all the wines from this producer. 2 people found this helpful, do you?

Black fruit on the palate made me think it was going to be a fruit bomb, but the leather and smooth tannins made that thought disappear. Longish finish. Thick and luscious. Better than my last bottle. |

2/6/2024 - rexmerlot wrote: 90 pointsClear dark purple in colour. Notes of black fruit, dark chocolate, and some herbaceous notes. Drank over a couple of days and got better with time. Still quite tight upon opening, but once open it was very nice. Will age for some time. A good example of what Cabernet can do in BC from the right terroir. Prior note about the Carmenere is very true. Definitely not a California Cab. |

1/4/2024 - Canoehead Likes this wine: 93 pointsGetting better half-year later. This is the result of smoked bacon, blackberry crumble and black pepper hosting a ripper of a party. Great weight, long finish. Enough acid and tannin to stand up to roast chook and veggies. One more bottle to go and listen up DV I’ve already earmarked it for a Syrah tasting this year that you & Vino Loco will be a part of. |

12/23/2023 - Winance Tom Likes this wine: 95 pointsA most enjoyable bottle of wine. Every once in a while, you get one and the stars align and you just enjoy it in a special way that’s magical. This one did that teaming with aromas, including florals and cherries and other things I couldn’t identify and the taste very similar. |

12/6/2023 - rexmerlot wrote: 90 pointsBeautiful wine. Dark purple in colour. Lots of fruit, but not over the top. Notes of blackberry, licorice, and dark chocolate. Each varietal released by this winery is great. Could easily be drank for another 5 - 10 years. |

11/30/2023 - OttawaB Likes this wine: 93 pointsThis wine is in a nice place right now. Subtle tannic structure, good balance. Tannins and fruit tend to the black tea bitter side, rather then the sweet side. Still nice red berry fruit, plummy, spices/herbs, black tea. Smooth. Dusty tannins, mid length to the finish. |
