2020 Oculus
100 Points – John Schreiner
A Vintage like no Other
Our 2020 vintage represents the best vintage produced from one of the finest harvests Okanagan Valley has experienced.
“The wine begins with appealing aromas of cassis, spice and dark cherry. The long and silky tannins support flavours of dark fruits with a hint of chocolate. The finish is persistent. A tour de force!”

The result of meticulous selection in the vineyard estate with grapes that have been specifically nurtured for this rare wine.
Vineyards
90% Border Vista Vineyard, Osoyoos
Our warmest and smallest southern vineyard with an elevation of 330m-360m on the eastern side facing west in Osoyoos, kilometres away from the Washington State border. The vines in Border Vista are full of wild vigour with gravel-free, loamy sands producing rich full-bodied wines.
10% Jagged Rock Vineyard, Black Sage Bench, Oliver
On the Black Sage Bench tucked alongside a secluded valley protected by a craggy range lies Jagged Rock. At 1400 feet elevation, this estate vineyard is the perfect location for harnessing the greatness of the terrain.
Wine Profile
This Merlot-dominant blend imparts rich flavours of both red and blue fruits. The Cabernet Franc provides a subtle herbaceous undertone that enriches the wine’s complexity, while the Cabernet Sauvignon brings balance supporting length on the palate. A touch of Petit Verdot contributes to the wine’s structural composition.
