Red
Sage Hills 2022 Red Blend
Ripe Bing cherry, plum and blackberry lead, with liquorice adding a darker, savoury accent. Wild fermentation in stainless steel preserves clarity across the three-variety blend, while 24 months on lees in neutral barrels brings measured texture. Unfined and unfiltered, the palate closes with delicate, soft tannins and a composed, naturally expressive finish.
Robin Ridge 2016 Frigate Meritage
Stewed blueberry and blackberry give this mature red a generous, dark-fruited core, while peppercorn brings a savoury edge. The palate feels rich and settled, with the softened fruit profile pointing to development rather than sheer freshness. Rounded and warming in style, it suits slow-cooked dishes and other robust flavours at the table.
Lariana Cellars 2021 Twenty One
Generous and dark-fruited, with blackcurrant on the nose and rich flavours of plum, fig and black cherry across the palate. The blend brings Cabernet Sauvignon, Carménère and Syrah together in a composed, full-flavoured style. Its breadth is matched by clear aromatic definition, giving the wine depth and presence without crowding out the fruit.
Lariana 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon
Blackcurrant and fig define a bold, richly fruited profile, carrying cleanly from nose to palate. The dark fruit is direct and generous, with enough depth to make the wine a natural partner at the table. Decant briefly and serve with roast beef, grilled lamb, braised short ribs, savoury mushrooms or firm aged cheese, letting the fruit open as the wine rests.
Apara 2023 Gamay Noir
A vibrant Okanagan Gamay with crunchy red fruit and an aromatic cupboard of peppery spice. Wild carbonic fermentation brings lift and immediacy, while a short stay in neutral French oak keeps the palate fresh, supple and unforced. Juicy waves of fruit carry through a lively finish. Serve slightly chilled with charcuterie, roast chicken, grilled salmon or herb-led vegetable dishes.
Scout Vineyard 2022 Gew Cab Co-Ferment
Bright floral and tropical notes lead this light, translucent red, followed by herbaceous freshness and savoury depth. Gewurztraminer and Cabernet Sauvignon were fermented together for seven days, then pressed into neutral barrels to finish fermentation and age for 18 months. Unorthodox but composed, it is refreshing with a light chill and quietly complex through the finish.
Nostalgia 2021 Syrah
Cherries and raspberries open this Syrah, joined by savoury, peppery and meaty notes that give the fruit a darker, more complex frame. Fifteen months in French and American oak add shape without obscuring the wine's energy. Unfiltered and quietly textural, it finishes with a spicy, composed character that suits richly flavoured dishes and hard cheeses.
Nostalgia 2020 Merlot
Ripe cherry and juicy plum lead, followed by dried cranberry and warm baking spice. The palate is velvety and composed, with supple tannins carried by fresh acidity rather than weight. Generous fruit and gentle spice stay in balance through the finish, giving this polished red an easy sense of flow and enough structure to work naturally at the table.
Martin’s Lane 2020 Naramata Ranch Vineyard Pinot Noir
A perfumed nose has matured toward earth, mushrooms, minerals and wet stone. Rich black cherry and liquorice remain at the core, gradually giving way to a more savoury, mineral expression across a long, persistent finish. Freshness keeps the developing layers in balance, making this Pinot Noir compelling now while retaining clear shape and energy.
Lake Breeze 2018 Meritage
Plum cake and dark berries lead, layered with salted caramel and aromatic spice. The palate is dry and sleek, with a distinct herbal thread beneath toasted spice, espresso and dark chocolate. Savoury and fragrant, the blend carries its richness with polished shape rather than heaviness. Serve with roast beef, lamb or mushroom dishes.
Mission Hill 2016 Oculus Okanagan Valley
Blackcurrant and ripe blackberry form a vivid, concentrated core, lifted by a subtle floral note. Layers of earth, cigar box and liquorice add savoury complexity as the palate develops. Fresh acidity and firm tannins bring definition, carrying the dark fruit into a long, rich finish. Decant and serve with roast lamb or beef.
Culmina 2019 Hypothesis
Truffle and stewed fruit open the nose, followed by fresh black fruit and a measured oak frame. The palate is clean and mineral, carrying its depth with definition rather than heaviness. A composed Bordeaux-style blend with firm structure and a dry finish, it suits roast beef, grilled lamb, braised short ribs, mushrooms or firm aged cheese.
Artakama 2019 Pinot Noir Magnum
Delicate and floral, with fresh red blossoms woven through a gentle savoury note. The palate is smooth, round and immediately approachable, showing the sappy freshness that gives Pinot Noir its particular energy. Low tannins and bright acidity keep the generous texture light on its feet, with no sense of heat. Serve slightly cool with salmon, roast poultry or mushroom dishes.
The Hatch 2021 Screaming Frenzy Cabernet Franc
Phantom Creek 2016 Becker Vineyard Cuvée Okanagan Valley
Blackberry and plum lead with dark chocolate, cedar, dried herbs and a subtle line of spice. Full bodied and layered, the palate carries generous fruit over fine tannins with enough freshness to keep the richness composed. The finish is long and detailed. Decant generously and pair with braised beef, roast lamb, grilled mushrooms or mature cheddar.
Henricsson Vineyard 2017 Deux Hivers Pinot Noir
Deeply coloured and intense, with black cherry at the centre and layers of baking spice, earth and mineral detail. Two years in oak build extra texture and body without obscuring the fruit, while a subtle black forest cake note adds richness. The finish is structured, savoury and quietly powerful, with enough freshness to keep the profile composed.
Free Form 2019 Cabernet Franc
Bold and complex, this Cabernet Franc layers dark plum and blackberry over smoke, mocha and classic herbal notes. The palate turns juicy with red fruit, supported by excellent structure and a fresh, mouthwatering finish. Concrete ageing keeps the fruit direct while spontaneous fermentation adds an unforced character. Pair with roasted game, grilled portobello mushrooms or a slow-cooked beef stew.
Niche NV The Counsellor Foch
Drawn from several vintages, this small-lot red is shaped by complexity and balance rather than sheer weight. The palate feels generous and flavourful, moving toward an especially soft finish. Minimal-intervention winemaking keeps the profile direct and unforced, while careful blending gives it a composed, settled feel. Serve with roast pork, braised lentils, grilled mushrooms or aged cheddar.
