Potent, fragrant, generous.
While Rust Wine Co. (formerly Rustico Farm & Cellars) is located on Golden Mile Drive and is one of the handful of wineries allowed to use the designation, this wine comes soils of the Similkameen Valley and is housed in a heft bottle with a wax sealed cork.
Spiced meats and oodles of purple fruit, finely ground white pepper, vanilla, and chocolate aromas lead to a palate laden with sweet and generous fruit. That fruit is propped up with mocha, licorice and more peppery spice flavours. A modern and potent wine, approachable, but not lacking complexity.
