Fragrant, complex, fresh.
This vintage is a lovely fragrant one. Acacia and yellow pears, tangerine and honey aromas lead to a fresh and lively palate with a pristine character and good complexity. It has depth and balance ad a long apple-y finish.

Bright, crisp, focused.
Expect fresh and bright notes of citrus, golden apples and crisp pears, spring flowers, honey and hints of Pinot's earthy undertones follow up. The palate is creamy and citrusy with spice and leesy flavours.
Solid and focused, not showy

Pristine, pretty, expressive.
Good intensity on the nose with pretty aromas of honeysuckle and exotic citrus atop guava and crunchy orchard fruits. The palate echoes the nose, it is very expressive and zesty with excellent concentration. The finish is long and mouthwatering with a grapefruit-y linger.

Concentrated, complex, succulent.
A notably earthy core reminiscent of fresh mountain stream and forest floor has pristine muddled aromas swirling around it; expect wildflower honey, apricots and warm pear compote with leesy tones. The palate is savoury and intense and has evident pithy grapefruit layers; a concentrated and succulent style.

Silky, expressive, elegant

The Mavety family has been growing grapes high above Vaseaux Lake in the South Okanagan since 1971. Since 1991 they have been making their own wines under the Blue Mountain label.

Consistent and elegant with an Old World charm, the 2012 offers roasted cherries, smoke, sous bois, fine spice, leather and herbal notes atop vanilla, raspberry and blueberry. The palate is silky; it boasts bright acidity and an attractive weight. High-toned fruit makes for an expressive palate - it's juicy and lengthy with very good focus.
New label.
