“Made from a blend of merlot and cabernet franc, shows lush fruit and rose petals on a creamy, elegant mouthfeel, flows effortlessly with attractive aromas and a morish finish.” - 93 Points, Candice Wine Chat
“Plush, fleshy ripe red berry fruits accentuate a bouquet of freshness and youth. Aromas of strawberries and yellow plums, a mix of apple and tropical fruits scents then sweet honeysuckle. A creamy satin mouthfeel touches the palate first with core fruit flavours that reflect the bouquet. A contrasting acid line for freshness and also accentuates the flavours of strawberry and berries, apple and flowers. Balanced, well made and ready to drink from 2023 through end of summer 2025.” - 92 Points, Cameron Douglas
