A case of British Columbia's best wines

What is so impressive about this syrah is the way that it combines northern Rhône scents and structure with warm climate generosity. Floral, herbal and peppery, with classic orange peel and bacon fat notes on the nose. Mouth-filling dark fruit add power through ripeness, but brisk acidity gives this wine great edge. Drink now or in the next 5 years. This wine won a gold medal at the Wine Access 2011 Canadian Wine Awards.
