We wanted to share another customer favourite from @hellosomedaywine. From Oliver in the Okanagan Valley, this lush blend of Merlot (56%) and Cabernet Franc (44%) features black cherry and cocoa notes, underlined by long,
smooth tannins and a spicy finish.

Aged in French oak, this wine pairs nicely with aged cheese or a mouth-watering steak and will reward long cellaring.

Available at our Apsen, Marda Loop, North Hill Plaza, Richmond Plaza and Seaton locations!
