Rathjen Cellars 2020 Wine Bunker Red
$28.99
Ripe mulberry, blackberry and damson plum are joined by light soy and cedar frond. The texture is light, with soft tannins, mouthwatering acidity and a long finish. Gamay Noir, Maréchal Foch and Pinot Noir come from Cowichan Valley and the Saanich Peninsula. Sixty percent of the fruit was crushed, destemmed and fermented on skins; the remainder underwent carbonic maceration. Indigenous yeast completed fermentation before two years in barrel.

About Rathjen Cellars
Mike Rathjen opened Rathjen Cellars on the Saanich Peninsula in 2016 after making wine in a Victoria basement known as the Wine Bunker. He worked exclusively with Vancouver Island fruit, restoring or leasing local vineyard sites. His winemaking took a low-intervention approach. The small range included still and sparkling wines as well as cider.
For Imperative Dry Vermouth, Rathjen supplied the wine base and Ampersand Distilling contributed its botanical expertise. Rathjen Cellars closed permanently in summer 2023.
