Border Vines 2009
This blend of six Bordeaux varietals consists of Cabernet Sauvignon (29%), Carmenere (23%), Malbec (23%), Merlot (20%), Cabernet Franc (4%) and Petit Verdot (1%). The wine is grown in five Osoyoos East Bench vineyards, all within tractor-driving distance from one another.
The nose on this medium bodied, complex red wine reflect its concentration of ripe blackberry and dark cherry fruit notes, along with hints of cassis, black pepper and sweet spice. Well integrated oak character and fresh acidity provide the structure for the wine, so it is broad, but not soft, on the palate. The large percentage of Carmenere included in the blend contributes the notes of black pepper and sweet dried spice which marry well with the predominant black cherry and ripe dark fruit. The finish is long and without much tannic linger.
