With each passing year the vines on this property get a little older, the roots dig down a little deeper and the winemaker gets a little smarter … and as the old saying goes: “Every little bit counts”. This wine gets better every vintage – the nose has butterscotch, baked apple and spice while the palate takes on a creaminess along with definitive oak flavour, but the oak acts as a vessel to deliver the spiced apple and vanilla … it’s a smooth, sexy wine with a very apropos spicy finish.
