A true expression of Lillooet terroir, this full-bodied wine was handcrafted exclusively from 100% estate grown grapes. This cellar-worthy blend is comprised of  51% Cabernet Franc, 33% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 16% Merlot. For optimal colour and flavour extraction, cold soaking pre-fermentation was completed in addition to extended skin maceration after fermentation was completed. Additional extraction techniques were used during the peak fermentation process, including punchdowns and pumpovers of the skin cap. The components were vinified and then aged separately for 15 months in 100% new French oak barrels from hand-selected family coopers. The final selection of 6 barrels was made after several tastings and trials, to create this premium red blend in limited quantity.
