Osoyoos Larose Le Grand Vin 2020

Osoyoos Larose Le Grand Vin Red Blend 2020 is a premier, Bordeaux-style red blend from British Columbia that stands as one of Canada's most iconic and age-worthy icon wines. This meticulously crafted blend of 66% Merlot, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Petit Verdot, 8% Malbec, and 3% Cabernet Franc showcases the unique desert terroir of the South Okanagan. The nose is deep, complex, and highly aromatic, leaping from the glass with layers of black cherry, wild blackberry, and cedar, all underpinned by a distinct, savory dusting of local Okanagan sagebrush. On the palate, it is full-bodied and powerful yet elegantly structured, offering a dense core of dark plums and fresh red fruits framed by sweet, refined, and increasingly dense tannins. Matured for 12 months in custom French oak barrels, it balances a strong backbone with bright acidity, leading to a long, persistent, and sophisticated finish that ensures exceptional potential in the cellar.

Food Pairing: Pairs magnificently with prime rib, roasted lamb with rosemary, grilled wild game, or rich beef tenderloin accompanied by a red wine reduction.
