Description
Boxed Trio of Le Vieux Pin wines from the famed Okanagan Valley: Ava (Rousanne Viognier); Equinoxe Merlot; Syrah Cuvee Violee
Ava (Rousanne Viognier)
• This vintage is the first time since the inaugural release of this wine back in 2009 that the cepage is Roussanne dominant, followed by Viognier and Marsanne. Red Haven peaches, yellow plums are mingling with white aromatic flowers, herbal tea, and light brioche notes.
Equinoxe Merlot
• Equinoxe wines are made from some of the oldest vines in the Okanagan and is crafted to capture the true essence of the South Okanagan valley. The Equinoxe Merlot is a double selection of the grapes from that very special vineyard site. The flavours on the palate transform into plum and blackberry with a very long finish of espresso and mocha. The calibre of fruit and style of winemaking leads to a wine that will age gracefully for 10+ years.
Syrah Cuvee Violee
• Cuvée Violette, as the name suggests, displays the perfumed and floral side of this noble grape variety. The palate is silky smooth thanks to a gentle co-ferment with just under 1% Viognier. In the cellar we kid around and call this wine a syrah for Pinot Noir lovers. Crunchy bramble fruit and purple flowers mingle with pepper and spice.
