Fall in love with your new Dream wine! This Merlot dominant Bordeaux blend (17% Appassimento) spent 16 months aging in French and American oak. Fruit forward but structured, with notes of dark fruit, subtle vanilla, leather and spice. Pair this wine with charcuterie and cheese, well marbled cuts like prime rib or porterhouse steak, or mushroom risotto. ...

Fine lees, they may not look so beautiful spilling out of a barrel as it is emptied and cleaned, but a white wine aged in contact with these small particles of yeast results in rich texture and complex flavours.

2020, what a year. That sentence can be referencing SO many things but in this case we are talking about the vintage 2020! With persistent warmth and sunshine through the growing season, followed by sunny dry harvest months, we are looking forward to the quality and character the 2020 reds will show us. They are currently aging in oak barrels in our cellar - periodically checked on by our Winemaking team.

So thrilled to hear the wine writers @winealign enjoyed our Sparkling Rose and included it in 'Canada's Best Wines' guide! With 90 points from Michael Godel "Good solid sparkling Rosé here...Lots of character and a wine that really holds your attention." Thanks Michael!

The most incredible weather carried us through to the end of our harvest season. All of our grapes are now off the vine, with a portion of the harvest sent to our drying barns to begin the Appassimento journey. Cheers to our incredible winemaking team!! This year has had ups and downs, but let the thought of 2020 vintage wines fill you with hope and excitement because the vines have enjoyed incredible conditions over the growing season!
