Golden Mile Bench, Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe sign of serious wine is repeating the experience year after year. Enter Culmina Unicus. It nailed it last year, and it did it again with 2018. The fruit is grown high above the valley floor on Margaret's Bench along the Golden Mile Bench. It’s a delicious mix of minerality infused grapefruit and white pepper with a dusting of dried herbs. The palate is similarly exciting with sweet lemon and guava and a long weighty finish. Drink or hold, the future is bright for this wine. Well done. Real wine. The new BC.Tasted: 18 April 2019Tasted by: Prices:

Golden Mile Bench, Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaFrom their estate grüner veltliner, grown on the high altitude Margaret's Bench, this singular wine was fermented in a combination of concrete egg (35%), concrete amphora (26%), stainless steel (22%), and neutral French oak (17%). The result is a layered white, edgy elbows in youth, but with the structure and intent to merge and age well over the next few years. Lemongrass, lemon peel, white grapefruit, white pepper is coated with a leesy, herbal, citrus wash to a tight, lingering finish. Quite polished, as is the house style. Pour this when you want to stupefy your friends (yup - GruVe from BC).Tasted: 15 May 2019Tasted by: Prices:
