Succulent, powerful, generous.
A red blend of Merlot (17%), Cabernet Sauvignon (57%), Cabernet Franc (16%), Petit Verdot (2%) and Malbec (8%), true old-style Bordeaux, but completely Similkameen in character.
Rich and sweet cherry and black raspberry, licorice, cedar, cassis, vanilla and mocha aromas lead to a liqueur-like palate that is showing its age. Cigarbox, prune and graphite flavours linger on a powerful and generous palate with a long finish and supple tannins.
Pairs great with Gone Crackers Canadian Chedder & Chive
