AWARD-WINNING WINES

Sandhill Rose 2017

Gold Medal 90 Points at the Beverage Tasting Institute Rose Challenge 2018. This Rosé begins with a summer pretty aroma of melon, peach, raspberry, watermelon and white currant. At first taste, expect a refreshing and juicy wine that is just off-dry with fruity notes of melon and strawberry, then finishing dry-ish, with hints of red currant, pomegranate and melon.

Small Lots Petit Verdot 2015 (Wine Club Only)

Best of Varietal / Gold Medal / Best Other Single Red Varietal — BC Best of Varietal Wine Awards 2018. Deep purple garnet colour with an ever-changing bouquet of black cherry, black currant, black pepper, Chai spice, charred oak, black licorice, coffee bean, violet, and savoury notes of mushroom and sage.
This full-bodied wine has firm, but not aggressive tannins, a great mouth-feel and fabulous texture, backed by flavours of rich, ripe black fruits and baking spice.
The long lingering finish shows notes of smoked spices, dark chocolate, black currant, black tea and mocha.

Sandhill Pinot Blanc 2016

Silver Medal at the WineAlign National Wine Awards of Canada 2017. Clear and bright with a yellow hue and a fresh bouquet of pineapple, melon, yellow apple and a hint of floral. This light to medium-bodied wine has a smooth yet refreshing mouth-feel and flavours of melon, pink grapefruit, apple and tropical fruit.
Refreshing notes of citrus and BC orchard fruits, with a hint of spice, linger through on the finish.
