Bartier Bros. 'The Orchard Row', Okanagan Valley, BC
Readers rated this wine: 
Smooth, fresh, woven.
Made from Pinot Noir, Cabernet Franc and Merlot from Bartier's estate Cerquiera Vineyard this blend was aged in neutral oak barrels. Notes of spiced plums and cocoa, dried strawberries and balsamic, red currents, cedar shakes and white pepper appear on the nose. It's a fresh wine, medium-bodied with notable purity and underlying salinity. Forest berries, leather, toasted spice and tobacco flavours trail across the palate. Nicely woven with smooth tannins.
