Complex aromas rise from the glass, combining flint, grilled lemon, marzipan, and ocean spray. Stone fruits, citrus and sage brush flavours fill the palate. This is a powerful wine with a long sea salt finish.

Border Vista Vineyard

This single parcel, planted in 1997 to Dijon clonal material, is a mere ten metres from the BC-Washington border on the east side of Osoyoos Lake.

The vineyard, with Anarchist Mountain towering above it to the east, has​ a​ slight undulation​s​ characteristic​s​ of what was once the floor of a large glacial lake.

This is an expressive wine with complex aromas of citrus. The palate delivers flavours of citrus, stone fruits and an intriguing hint of sea salt.

93 Points, John Schreiner

Always more serious, Capture opens with complex flinty and seawater notes and hints of grilled lemons. The palate mixes mild stone fruit and more mineral seaweed with a creamy finish.

93 Points, Anthony Gismondi
