More about Wine and Ratings

The grapes for this single vineyard, small batch wine come from the Twenty Mile Bench sub-appellation.  The mineral-rich soils and elongated growing season, combined with classic elevage in French oak barrels, have led to a richly flavoured wine of excellent depth and layered complexity.

Wild fermented and aged in French oak barrels for 24 months.

 Single Vineyard. Vegan Friendly.

Tasting Notes

By David Lawrason, Wine Align (Rating 92)

This single vineyard cab franc from an escarpment site on Twenty Mile Bench was

fermented and aged in French oak. It has a very pretty, lifted and detailed

nose with fine integration of raspberry fruit, subtle herbs, florals, vanillin

and cedary spice. It is medium weight, smooth and refined, although alcohol

heat does show on the finish. Tannins are firm but not green or austere. The

length is excellent.
