2006 Équinoxe Cabernet Franc
Équinoxe: equal day, equal night. Equal old world, equal new world.
This Cabernet Franc was the first wine that opened our eyes to the uniqueness of South Okanagan. Here, we get elements of both old and the new world. The lushness and fruit intensity of the new world, marries the structure, acid and complexity of the old world.
Grilled herb crusted steak, cassis, sweet pipe tobacco and leather and other hard to pin point complex aromas greet you on the nose. The same flavors are displayed on the palate while the finish lasts for well over a minute. Monumental.
