Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaA first for Canada, Terravista's plantings of the Spanish grape Mencía, pioneered in Naramata's Outlook Vineyard in 2021, are now online, yielding both a red and rosé version, in very limited release. Pouring a shining deep salmon hue, this fruit forward, juicy pink floods the palate with strawberry jam, orange blossom, ripe honey crisp apple, and a dusting of peppery spice along a glycerol-lined palate, ending dry on the snappy, bitter citrus, brief finish. A promising beginning.Tasted: 07 October 2026Tasted by: Prices:

Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaExpect a fluorescent pink colour from this unique BC rosé made from the Spanish variety mencía. It opens with a savoury mix of fruit and terroir, clearly charting its own course. The attack is just on the sour side, with cranberries and crabapples, and a somewhat richer, glycerol texture, before finishing clean and dry with a touch of bitterness for complexity. Definitely a gastronomic bottle for the dinner table.Tasted: 10 May 2026Tasted by: Prices:

Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaPouring an interesting pale, fluorescent pink, this unique mencía rosé opens with a savoury yet fruit-forward nose. It’s not trying to emulate Provence in color or style. The fruit runs from cranberry to crabapple, with light florals and a pure expression. Dry and crisp, it shows bright acidity, a hint of bitterness, and good length, opening up nicely in the glass.Tasted: 27 March 2026Tasted by: Prices:
