Petit Verdot plantings in the Okanagan are rare, as is this wine. Winner of a gold medal this year? Ok...I will take it.
On the nose expect bacon and blackberry, with a hint of spicy coffee. The palate carries a heavy mouthfeel of blackberries and leather. Full body wine here, with suede-like tannins.
Update: 03/10/18: With some age, there is a distinct blueberry flavour with vanilla & violets on the back end. No bacon detected...still full-body!
