New world wine in old world style. Nice aromatic nose with complex layers of spicy oak, burnt toasty carmel. The palate is medium bodied, smooth quality, a fair amount of oak in there with some dark berry fruit trying to come out. A little heavy on oak. With food this would be better, perhaps a year or two more in bottle?

91 balance on this wine is excellent. Lighter mouthfeel but good length of finish.

Yes indeed - old world in new bottle but capturing the BC terroir so well. I prefer this slightly chilled. Great Canadian wine
