Dead of Night 2009
This blend of Tannat, a noble red varietal traditionally grown in the Madiran region in the south of France, and Syrah, is grown in two Class 1 vineyards on Osoyoos East Bench, and aged in 225 L French oak barriques.
Dead of Night is a rich, medium bodied wine with a nose of violets, dark cherry and blackberry complemented by bits of cedar and plum. A nice spine of acidity and considerable, yet round and fine tannins, provide the structure for the ripe dark fruit, chocolate and plum flavours of the palate. The finish is long and lingering. Drinks well now, but will continue to improve over the next five to eight years in bottle.
