Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe complexities in this aromatic wine come both the blend (viognier, roussanne, marsanne) and the concentration of the full, perfumed, sun-primed fruit. Very perfumed, floral notes, musk, acacia, ripe pear and overripe melon. Dried herbs, lush peach and welcome bitter pear skin phenolics on the expansive, palate. Exotic orange blossom note closes out the juicy finish. Will continue to deepen with short term cellaring - 2-4 years.Tasted: 18 September 2015Tasted by: Prices:

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe '13 Ava is 50 viognier, 41 roussanne and 9 marsanne. Rigourous selection has yield another delicious blend that is more Rhone-y than I'm sure the French would like. The appeal of this blend is it's juicy, dare I say elegant, but with enough power and fruit and to please the sophisticated sipper. Lemon oil, peaches, cooked quince, it is all here in perfect balance and it is persistent. At 12.9 percent winemaker Severine Pinte is knocking it put of the park with a fungo bat - longer and leaner. You can drink this with almost any rich fish dish, chicken veal and cheese. Delicious.Tasted: 28 January 2015Tasted by: Prices:
