Solstice
Reserve 2007
Background
The 2007 Solstice
Reserve is a blend of 53% Zweigelt and 47% Merlot grown
on the steep, gravelly slopes of Suncrest Vineyard in Okanagan Centre. This wine reflects its origins through low
yields in the vineyard, minimal handling and slow
maturation techniques. It is aged in French oak barrels
for twelve months and bottle-aged for an additional six
months prior to release. Solstice Reserve reflects both
the essence of our unique surroundings and our
commitment to quality.
Tasting Notes
Rich and dense,
it displays aromas of raspberry, cherry and plum and a
subtle note of black pepper. The palate is full-bodied
and generous, providing plenty of ripe fruit through to
the finish. This unique and age-worthy blend is our
signature red wine.
