Sunrock Vineyards Illumina 2013
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaA one-of-a-kind Okanagan blend mixing 64 percent zinfandel with 36 percent shiraz, this is not for the timid. Mouthfilling, spicy and rich, it’s done a fair job of soaking up the oak it was aged in without tipping the scales. The palate is a fresh, spicy raspberry affair with enough acidity to take on the power and weight of this jammy blackberry, vanilla and chocolate finish. Best with barbecue ribs or any braised or roasted beef dish.Tasted: 01 August 2018Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $29.99 | 750ml | private wine shops |
