Succulent, spicy, superb.
Expect typical savoury Okanagan character in this excellent Syrah.
Aromas of smoked plums, blackberry, dark cocoa, white pepper, toasted brown spices, tealeaf and leather. Expressive with a supple weight, generous fruit and savoury undertones. Overall good posture and balance here.

Precise, racy, floral.
Nk'Mip (pronounced Inkameep) is a winery located in the very south of the Okanagan Valley where the dessert crashes into the US border, in Osoyoos.
This lovely dry Riesling is reminiscent of marmalade, Gala apples, stone fruits, Meyer lemons and fragrant white blossoms. It is equally mouth-pleasing; tangy and concentrated potent and racy.
A precise and pure expression of Riesling.
Pair: Sushi, white meats and turkey with the fixins or seafood curry.

Fresh, zesty, slick.
Located in Southern Okanagan, Osoyoos, Nk'Mip is North America's first indigenous-owned winery. The Sylix peoples land straddled the Canadian US border into Washington State, where the grapes for this year's rose were sourced. The website and QR code have not been updated for me to pass on all information (variety, winemaking, price) but it is a light-blush hue with peach and honeydew melon, orange blossom and grapefruity notes. Slick and fresh, light-bodied and zesty it has nice fruitiness overall and is a drier style.
