1.5L Magnum | 2018 Clos du Soleil Signature🔥93+pts

Wow, so fresh and persistent. This wine shows a lot of youth for a 7 year old wine. This is the large format effect! It's a Bordeaux style blend of 42% Merlot, 32% Cabernet Sauvignon, 19% Cabernet Franc, 5% Malbec and 2% Petit Verdot, and the result is a complex sequence of aromas and flavours that deliver pure expression of the Similkameen Valley.

The 2018 vintage is the product of a long, warm growing season and was perfect for producing this style of wine. This beautifully aromatic wine explodes out of the glass with concentrated notes of red currant, black berry, cassis, roasted coffee, pipe tobacco along with savoury undertones and notions of sweet oak. On the palate it is rich and mouthcoating, with a seamless texture, the classic rustic Similkameen tannins framing luxurious layers of dark berry fruit, barrel spice and loads fresh herbs. The black pepper and clove interact with beautiful minerality on the finish.

1.5L Magnum, equivalent to two regular bottles in one Collector sized Magnum.
