This G.J. Andrews favourite is a quietly confident Similkameen Valley resident, speaking with a deep voice of plum and dark cherry. It's a wine that carries itself with an understated power, its structure a testament to the sun and soil of British Columbia. Pour a glass for slow-roasted beef or a robust blue cheese, and you’ll find its complex character unfolds with satisfying grace.
