Great Northern Vineyards is located on the bench above the Similkameen River in Cawston, in the Similkameen Valley. The soils are predominantly river rock, adding to the mineral complexity shown in this wine.  The grapes were handpicked on November 2 and November 3, 2018 at approximately 23.0 brix.  The wine has gone through a full malolactic fermentation and was aged in French oak for 19 months before being bottled.
