| Very deep intense purple colour. Slightly spicy, bright, dried red cherry puree nose with some sandalwood notes. Dry, medium bodied, spicy, tangy, ripe plum-cherry puree flavours with a lingering, high acid, gently cedary finish. This well-priced blend of Syrah, Petit Verdot and Malbec has 13.5% alcohol and 2 g/L residual sugar. |

| TASTING NOTE: The folks at Pelee Island Winery have big hopes for their island and the world at large. To save the island's unique red cedar savannah forest from extinction, they bought it. \"If our island community can [become] North America's greenest community it will spur others to take action around the country; an eco-friendly drive that can only benefit everyone.\" An idea to think over while enjoying the juicy, ripe dark fruit and vibrant food-friendly acidity in this big, rich red.
