This small production wine gets more attention from wine writers than anything else we make. Why? It’s juicy, fresh, highly gulpable and tastes like the vineyards here in Cawston where it was grown. It’s the real deal. *This is a light-bodied, low tannin, unfined and unfiltered wine that shows a bit of a natural haziness*
Pinot Noir seems to like our site here on the Cawston bench. We blend 5 clones of Pinot Noir from various blocks of vines planted as far back as 1989. This is a wine that is truly made in the vineyard. Classic notes of cherry & spice. No messing around, no fining and no filtration. Sometimes less is more.
Aged 16 months in mostly older French oak barrels, look for big juicy red and black fruits with a hint of pepper and wild herbs. Wild fermented. Unfined and unfiltered.
This is a classic blend from Orofino that has a strong following every vintage. The name is a nod to a local landmark bridge that crosses the Similkameen River. Soft tannins and bright acidity. Juicy and approachable and just straight up delicious.
This vineyard was formerly a commercial gravel pit that doubled up as the local make-out spot for young lovers. I could use descriptors like luscious, spicy, juicy, sexy and lip-smacking to describe this gorgeous cabernet but that would be too easy.
Light in body but extremely aromatic and full of flavour! Flavours of pepper, cherry and baking spice. Unfined and unfiltered. Zinfandel in a Similkameen style.
Built for comfort, not for speed, this ode to Bordeaux is one for the cellar. Rich black fruits mixed with spicy notes and classic Similkameen minerality. Our best barrels make up the blend. Always unfined and unfiltered to best show off our terroir.
