Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
En route to Naramata, the stunning Dickinson vineyard is on a sun-drenched bench above the lake. This stylish wine shows dark fruits, fine cocoa and pipe tobacco followed by silky fine-grained tannins. So fun to taste and compare with our other single vineyard Merlots!
Winemaker Notes
Hand harvested and sorted fruit from the 10 year old vines of Dickinson Vineyard, situated on a stunning sun-drenched bluff above the lake about half-way to Naramata village. An extremely early, warm start to the season resulted in intensely ripe fruit, with great fruit presence as well as perfectly ripened tannins.
