Gentle. perfumed, purity.
Made in a single fermentation in a stainless steel tank with two-months on lees, this 100% Muscat Ottonel bubbly has a gentle fizz and is perfumed with stone fruits and gala apples, honey and pomelo aromas. The palate is buoyant and spritzy with lovely purity and charm.

This premium single vineyard Syrah comes from two clones each fermented separately, one co-fermented with 1% Viognier in concrete; all wild yeast fermented.
It is a gamey and savoury version with aromas of wild blackberries, cracked black pepper, bittersweet cocoa, wood spice and cedar. It has a fresh entry and a grape-y character, which leads to 90% dark cocoa and espresso, leather and spice culminating in tight oak flavours on the finish. It's angular right now and will benefit from a few years more in bottle.
Pairs great with Gone Crackers Canadian Chedder & Chive

Tangy, zesty, focus.
This single vineyard Sauvignon Blanc comes from 22-year-old vines in the Border Vines Vineyard in Osoyoos, and was fermented in stainless, oak and concrete.
It is tangy and vibrant with nettle, mountain stream, elderflowers, lime and green apples. The palate is zippy and citrus-driven with linear focus and dry and zesty character. It has just enough of a creamy edge to carve off the angles and a long and mouthwatering finish.

Pair: Crab ravioli, corn on the cob, smoked Gouda, creamy soups and pastas.
