Description from the Producer
BC VQA
FLAVOUR PROFILE: A bright garnet hued Cabernet Franc with a complex bouquet of smoky oak, tobacco leaf, cedar, and cigar box, mingling with dark plum and currant fruit notes. This full-bodied wine has good structure, silky drying tannins, and moderate food-friendly acidity. The ripe fruit flavours include currant, blackberry, red plum, and cherry, which are accented by notes of sweet spice and oak. The extra-dry finish lingers with notes of tangy red and black berries, black tea, sweet spice, and soft oak.
FOOD PAIRINGS: Enjoy with grilled red meats; lamb chops with rosemary; rack of lamb; roasted game meats with savoury herbs; beef and mushroom stew; steak and kidney pies; grilled portobello mushrooms; rich mushroom lasagna; 70% dark chocolate; two-year-old cheddar and asiago cheese.
WINEMAKING: The Cabernet Franc was harvested from Rocky Ridge Vineyard in the Similkameen Valley in October 2020. The wine was aged in new, one and two-year-old French oak barrels for 18 months. The top 21 barrels were selected for their structure, fruit concentration, mouthfeel, level of acidity and potential ageability. These barrels were later blended and bottled in February 2023.
SERVING TEMPERATURE: Serve at a cool room temperature of 16 to 18˚C. Drink now through 2027. Decanting is recommended if drinking now through 2024.
Residual Sugar: 0.5 g/L
