South Rock Vineyard is the southernmost site on Oliver's famed Golden Mile Bench, British Columbia's first official Sub-GI. This vineyard is home to some of the oldest vines in the Okanagan, as well as our estate winery.
Tasting Notes: A balanced, elegantly integrated wine true to the variety on account of the warm but gentler morning sunshine that this side of the valley receives. Damson plum, brambleberry, and garrigue dominate the nose and palate, complemented by hallmark Syrah-like cured meat character. Look for this to develop for the next 8-10 years.
Farm Notes: Fluvial fan of gravelly clay and eroded mountain rock.
