A COMPENDIUM is a compilation of concise items on a subject, in our case, the combination of soil, climate, clone selection, and hand-harvesting of grape clusters to create this unique wine. The fruit was selected from specifically designated blocks within our vineyard estates in Osoyoos and Oliver, where the porous soil forces the vines to search for nutrients. This struggle results in elegant and luscious fruit. Following fermentation and extended maceration, this wine was aged for eighteen months in French oak barrels.
Cabernet sauvignon 45 %, Merlot 37 %, Cabernet franc 16 %, Petit Verdot 2 %
93 Points by Decanter
Intense cassis, tar, liquorice and espresso bouquet, powerful ripe tannins; long, complex and extracted. Marked purity of flavour.
