Wine Writer’s Comment:
Quinta Ferreira’s vineyards are located in the Okanagan Valley’s renown Black Sage Bench, famous for producing outstanding grapes due to its desert climate, soils and growing conditions.
This rich, smoky blend of Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Syrah is a bold expression of dark fruit, dark chocolate and tobacco. Winemaker Michael Ferreira has patiently aged this red for 20 months in 75% French Oak and 25% American Oak barrels. His Portuguese roots emerge in this wine – it’s full-bodied, well oaked, with a nice balance of fruit and acidity. This red will pair nicely with tomato-and-herb based sauces, roasted meats and game, and hearty stews.
