Tasting Notes  
BC's Age-Worthy Osoyoos 06

Osoyoos Larose Le Grand Vin 2006
Okanagan, B.C.

A more muted and plummy nose with cedar notes. However it really opens up with some aeration, showing more fruit. Fresh and zesty on the palate - acidity is high and there's fresh plum fruit and other red fruit. Fruitier and riper than the 04, but quite smooth already. Some secondary notes including hints of licorice and tobacco. Vanilla and smoke on the finish. This is the first batch of the newer style and Osoyoos Larose viticulturist Alain Sutre considers this a "feminine" wine. 90 points
