Community Tasting Note

  • KillerJones Likes this wine: 90 points

    December 15, 2019 - This wine sounded interesting when I last visited the winery - ten different clones across two BC locations? I'll bite.

    That being said, you really smell the oak influence here...even after a solid decant. Think dark fruit here, also: black raspberry & cherry.

    These aromas spill onto the palate with serious earthiness, luscious acid, spice & smoke on the finish.

    Uncharacteristic PN with several layers of complexity here ...kept me interested all evening.

    Definitely ripe and wrapped in oak but nice acid that should carry it a couple more years.
