Passion. Precision. Purpose.

Rich in texture with a traditional elegance, this Merlot is crafted from own-rooted, cl 181 and cl 184 vines hand picked from Corcelettes' estate Stemwinder soils. Harvested on multiple dates and fermented in several small lots, it is a Merlot crafted with layers of complexity and depth. This wine is aged in 72% French oak & 28% American oak barrels that allow the wine to mature while maintaining it's identity- Similkameen Valley terroir. Look for a stony, mineral component integrated in soft tannin. 

Cabernet Franc is a notorious Similkameen all-star varietal. On the nose is black forest cake, cherry, & raspberry, while the palate is savoury, with sweet & spicy tobacco and marzipan. Great concentration with a generous nose. Firm tannins introduce a toasted oak finish with length. Try with grilled/cured meats or cheese and crackers!

The Similkameen Valley is enclosed by steep mountain walls accentuated by steep "Talus slopes", these are the workings of nature's forces and time. These Talus slopes are the source of our vineyard's soils; mixed earth and broken stone. TALUS- the flagship wine of Corcelettes- is crafted from a combination of our estate vineyard's geology and our team's passion and drive for excellence in both viticulture and the cellar.
