Newborn winery and no lavish tasting room yet (think off-roading), but somehow I expect a great future for this winery. All the wines had a balanced structure, with no watery unless or off flavors on the whole board. We picked up a beautiful Cabernet Franc, and like most of the wines it was less than $25. No typical green pepper flavor in this one, just beautiful red fruit and soft satisfying tannins.
I'm no expert at projecting the future flavor of wine but, if I had to guess, these bottles are young versions of great things to come. My wife thinks it's the grapes - they're damn good grapes! Afterwards we found out that this place is the retirement project of Harry McWatters, a legend in BC wine. Together with the fact the Sundial Vineyard vines are over 20 years old it all makes sense...get here while it's off everyone's radar and the wine is reasonably priced. read more
