Red Wine
Vinification: The grapes from En Terre Vineyard were whole berry destemmed with no crushing then transferred to a 3000L premium French Oak cask for fermentation where they briefly cold soaked for 3 days before gently warming with yeasts. The Osoyoos Syrah from Chicane Vineyard were also whole berry destemmed, fermented in stainless steel and barreled down separately. Pumpovers were happening twice a day during this period. After fermentation was complete, the wine had a post maceration period of 10 days before pressing off the skins. The Syrah was then aged in 20% new French oak barrels for 10 months, blended and bottled September 2023.
Tasting Notes: This is the first Syrah fruit that has been harvested from our own En Terre Vineyard we planted in 2020. On the nose, blueberry, blackberry, violets and white pepper jump out of the glass. On the palate, this medium-bodied wine offers damson plums, fresh blackberries, raspberries, liquorice, spices and vanilla. Bright acidity freshens the lingering finish.
