This is one of the most popular wines in the province and it’s easy to see why. It’s rich and smooth, with lots of dark berry flavour and hints of chocolate and coffee. It’s ideal for pairing with grilled burgers.
“Opens up with time in the glass to notions of violets and raspberry leaf. It has polished tannins and deep flavours, with moderate alcohol and soft acidity.”
