Osoyoos, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaRarely seen in Canada, heat seeking Touriga Nacional loves the warmth of their estate vineyard on Osoyoos East Bench. This was destemmed and uncrushed, fermented warm in stainless before heading to 225L French barrels (25% new) for 1 year. Fragrant violets, perfumed plums, boysenberries, and blueberries flood the full, juicy palate, with some charcoal smoke and wood barrel seasoning, and plumped tannins to frame. A big red best absorbed with grilled rosemary lamb.Tasted: 20 July 2026Tasted by: Prices:

Osoyoos, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaA consistent star at Moon Curser, except for last year's smoky edition, the 2022 is back on track in a big way. An opaque purple colour introduces you to a nose full of floral aromatics, including licorice and savoury black fruit. Power and concentration are the name of the game here, but with that not so surprising Okanagan acidity that keeps it fresh. As rich as the tannins are, the fruit is richer. Now you know why this grape is so revered in northern Portugal. It is a giant of wine, and I suspect it will live long and prosper in the bottle.Tasted: 21 July 2025Tasted by: Prices:
