Clos du Soleil Célestiale 2012

Keremeos, Similkameen Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis very complete Bordeaux-styled blend is composed of merlot, cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc, malbec and petit verdot from their Similkameen home vineyard. Big, sweeter wood aromas open this ripe, full red, layered with lacquer, black fruits and perfumed darker florals. Big peppery spices are woven into the structured, finely grained tannins and lifted with a wave of black cherry freshness. A lingering medicinal cherry and cracked peppercorn on the finish. Youthful still, decant and enjoy with beef, or lay down for a couple of years and be rewarded for your patience.Tasted: 01 May 2015Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
