Clean and crisp, it builds in intensity like a crescendo—starting bright and lifting into a beautifully defined finish. On the nose, it’s tropical, grassy, and delicately floral, with notes of lime, grapefruit, and jasmine. The texture is impressively soft and creamy—so much so that I suspect some barrel influence, even though there are no obvious vanilla cues. The palate opens with fresh pear and gooseberry, moving into a citrus-cream character at the core. But the true highlight? The finish. Long and lingering, it leaves a stunning impression of salty minerality, white pepper, and the zesty tang you get after tasting lemon peel.

On the nose, it opens with classic Viognier aromatics—white flowers, ripe peach, apricot, honeydew melon, and a tropical hint of starfruit. The palate is clean and focused, showcasing remarkable purity. The texture lands perfectly in the middle of the spectrum—not too thick, not too lean—just right.

The nose offers classic Tempranillo floral aromas of violet, cedar, dried sage, red plum, and a hint of vanilla, creating an expressive bouquet. On the palate, it remains slightly grippy—a nod to its 30 months in barrel—but that structure is part of its charm. The balance between oak influence, alcohol, and mid-palate weight is absolutely spot-on. Flavours of plum, crushed raspberry, orange peel, red licorice, black olives, fresh cracked pepper, and a generous helping of oak spices align perfectly, delivering a wine that can remind you of your last trip to Spain’s wine country.

A savoury, oak-forward expression of Merlot that leans more toward a Bordeaux style than the fruitier interpretations you might expect from California or Washington State. On the nose, you’ll find red currant, blueberry, cassis, mixed herbs, and spiced oak. The palate is evolving beautifully—softer now, yet still vibrant with a nervy, pulsing energy. Flavours of red berry compote, blueberry, dark chocolate, and stony minerality lead into a long—very long—oak-kissed finish. I’ll be keeping an eye on this one.

The Cabernet Sauvignon was sourced from the Bordertown Vineyard near the U.S. border in Osoyoos, blended with a small portion of Cabernet Franc from the Herrera Family Vineyard in the Similkameen Valley. On the nose, it delivers seductive aromas of pure black cherry, cassis, dark plum, cocoa, graphite, and tobacco. The palate is silky-soft, with bright acidity still carrying through, and tannins that are now melting seamlessly into the wine’s structure.
