La Frenz

Reserve Grand Total Merlot Blend 2015

This one is quite worth a try. An Okanagan Bordeaux-type blend. The Cab Franc is quite evident here with a bit of sweetness that is quite interesting. We had it with grilled lamb and potatoes. — 7 years ago

Cracked open this Oldfield Series to go with our tomahawks tonight. — 4 years ago

Van Westen Vineyards

Voluptuous Merlot Cabernet Franc 2016

Black currant here with maybe a powderier and softer structure than I remember in other vintages. That said, this is such a great wine year after year. If you enjoy it, try getting your hands on their Vulture which is 100% Cab Franc for a similar expression without the merlot to mellow it. — 6 years ago

D'Angelo Estates

Sette Coppa Red Bordeaux Blend 2014

Another nice vintage here (a vertical tasting would be amazing). 2014 was all blueberry and blackberry. There's an earthiness too. Allspice? Annually one of the great tasting stops on the bench. Come for the wine, stay for the bocce. Stay manly, my friends. — 7 years ago

Van Westen Vineyards

Vino Grigio Naramata Bench Pinot Grigio 2017

The whites from Van Westen are often overlooked under the shadow of their excellent reds. This grigio is excellent though. This wine is real and without gimmicks. That almost makes it an exception for Pinot Gris in Naramata. Genuine and well made. A very nice glass of wine with the mineral, lemon, and sage in perfect balance. — 7 years ago
