Okanagan Valley
Little Engine 2016 Platinum Pinot Noir
Dark cherry and ripe forest fruit lead a concentrated, spice-laced profile, with oak adding depth without obscuring the fruit.

Decant briefly and serve with duck, lamb or earthy mushroom dishes.
Le Vieux Pin 2010 Okanagan Valley Syrah
Deeply coloured and cool-climate in character, with black peppercorn, savoury grilled herbs and game-meat notes over dark fruit. The palate is elegant and refined rather than heavy, combining bright acidity with firm, structured tannins and layered complexity. A mature, cellar-built Syrah that suits pepper-crusted steak, roast lamb or grilled mushrooms.
Poplar Grove 2015 The Legacy Okanagan Valley
Rich black and blue fruit coat the palate, joined by a restrained layer of soft French oak. The profile is linear and focused, with well-managed tannins giving the ripe fruit shape without roughness. Dark berries and subtle spice linger on the firm, satisfying finish. Decant for an hour and serve with roast beef, lamb shank or a mushroom Wellington.
Poplar Grove 2014 The Legacy Okanagan Valley
Black fruit, dried leaves, licorice and sagebrush give the nose a distinctly savoury cast.

Poplar Grove 2012 The Legacy Okanagan Valley
Earthy cassis and red fruit meet leafy herbs and a distinctly savoury edge.

Poplar Grove 2011 The Legacy Okanagan Valley
Cassis and dark plum open with clay, leather and a quiet savoury note.

Poplar Grove 2009 The Legacy
Dark fruit leads, followed by herbal and savoury tones that now carry much of the wine's character.

Serve with roast beef, lamb, lentils or grilled mushrooms.
Poplar Grove 2008 The Legacy
Dark cherry and blueberry lead, with leather, rosemary, cocoa and coffee adding mature savoury detail. The palate is balanced and composed, its acidity still lively and its tannins subtle but persistent. Restrained French oak gives shape without overwhelming the fruit.

Poplar Grove 2015 Syrah
Dark fruit leads with a smooth, savoury character and a silky feel from the first sip.

Hillside 2020 Malbec Heritage Series
Rich dark fruit meets warm spice-cake notes in a concentrated but composed Malbec from a sunlit Naramata site.

Therapy Freudified Port Style
Flowers, raspberry and strawberry open this fortified red, joined by white pepper, raisin and vanilla.

La Frenz NV Liqueur Muscat
Vibrant apricot and ripe peach lead an intensely aromatic profile, with orange blossom and fresh floral notes adding lift.
