Osoyoos Larose Le Grand Vin 2011

Merlot 48%, Cabernet Sauvignon 33%, Petit Verdot 10%, Cabernet Franc 6%, Malbec 3%. Production 3,000 cases. The wine begins with aromas of cassis and spice, leading to flavours of black currant, mulberry, espresso and dark chocolate. The tannins are polished but firm. There is a hint of cedar on the finish. Score – 92. (johnschreiner.blogspot.com, Dec. 9, 2015)
