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 the wine. The grapes were handpicked on September 22, 2021 at approximately 24.7 brix. A portion of this wine has been barrel fermented in older French oak before being blended with wine that was fermented in stainless steel tanks.
