Description

Though this wine is young, and best realized over the next five years, it bears the structure worthy of its reputation in Canada. Le Grand Vin is now solely owned by Group Taillan, of Chateau Gruaud Larose in Saint-Julien, Bordeaux, and certainly this vintage is showing its Bordelaise influence. Merlot, cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc, petit verdot and malbec spend 18-20 months in French oak (60 percent new). Decant, or open a day in advance. Lightly smoked branch, cherries, gravels and dusty, grippy tannins are matched by a bright acidity and carried by a lengthy and floral violet finish. Savoury and strict, to be sure, but with a southern Okanagan glow that is unmistakable. This welcomes pairing with meats now, but would be best suited to time in the cellar. Score - 91.

Tasting Notes

This wine is an essential for me every vintage. It always over delivers on price and quality. This vintage is something that is a leap above what has come before it. The blend consists of 57% Merlot, 16% Cabernet Sauvignon, 17% Cabernet Franc, 4% Malbec, and 6% Petit Verdot. The nose is pencil shaving and cocoa powder over black currant and raspberry. When you take your first sip le Grand Vin enters your mouth with cherry and strawberry. This wine then moves to black currant, blackberry and dark plum. When the wine starts to finish it blooms into subtle violet. The floral note on this wine lingers as it moves to cocoa powder. This wine is quite tight and closed if you open it now, but it will start to open up with an hour in a decanter. While this will be approachable young I anticipate this wine will age for 10-15 years with ease in a proper cellar. Score - 5 Stars (out of 5). (André Proulx, andrewinereview.ca, Oct. 20, 2016)
