This small winery and organic vineyards are located at the base of the soaring McIntyre Bluff near Oliver BC. The Amicitia 2007 (Latin for 'friends') pronounced ah-me-CHEE--ee-ah is a red kitchen sink blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot, Malbec and Syrah. Expect soft, earthy aromas of wild berries and plums, tobacco and savoury herbal tones. It's medium-bodied and quite fine-boned with plenty of spice and cedar flavours. The tannins are fine grained and linger through the finish.
