2021 Symphony
A unique style of wine to Vancouver Island, Symphony is ripe and surprisingly full bodied considering our mild climate. Wild berries, currants, dried tobacco and notes of coastal forests on the nose give way to structured tannins, cherries and exotic spices on the palate. Symphony is a blend of Cabernet Libre, Labelle, Corivese and Petit Milo.

Aromas of cherry and herb notes on the nose, followed by flavours of spice, espresso and vanilla on the palate. It's brisk and structured and lends itself well with food.
