Dense purple-black in colour with a lively bouquet of blackcurrant and mulberry; medium to full-bodied, rich and spicy sweet blackcurrant and plum flavours.
Deep ruby red with aromas and flavours of ripe black cherries, plums, wildberries, mocha; bubble-gummy with a creamy mouthfeel, soft bubbles, fresh grapey quality and long, fruity, dry-ish finish. Perfect with fatty salumi.
Cab Sauv (57%) — backed up by Merlot and Cab Franc — continues to charge forth in this iconic Canadian red blend. Complexity and panache permeates from start to finish: fragrant raspberry and cedar aromas to blackcurrant and mocha flavours to a savoury sage-and-cigar-box finish. Glad to see that their new sit-down tasting room offers samples of multiple back vintages. Embrace this classic steak wine.

The inaugural vintage of the Roller Riesling is well made and refreshing. Light- to medium-bodied, there is green apple, grapefruit, mineral, peach, white flowers and hints of honey. There is very good length, so pair with chicken shawarma or fish tacos.
This superb Syrah (and tiny bit of Viognier) is aged in a selection of French, Hungarian and American oak, about 30% of it new oak. It has a lovely, expressive nose of plums, boysenberry, figs, earth, bramble, peppercorns and an array of savoury and sweet oak spice notes. It’s vibrant and meaty on the palate with ripe plum, black fruits, dried herbs, savoury/peppery spices, liquorice and smooth tannins.
