Sawmill Creek Vineyards Cabernet Franc 2017

Absolutely interesting. Serve chilled. It has waves of complex notes. Starting with a nice fruit flavor. Almost no tannin/bitter note - so I see why people don’t love it. But I do - it’s an innovative take on the cab franc — 7 years ago

Sawmill Creek Vineyard Dry Rosé Pinot Noir 2013

Crisp. I can taste the mist. Refreshing on a spring afternoon. Fantastic with all kinds of eastern ethnic foods and spices. Simple. Last year's pink juice. Still happening but not for long. — 11 years ago

Merlot

Surprisingly decent red wine from BC. Comes in a 4L box which is good for when Blair is away. Blended wine. Cheap. — 12 years ago

Sawmill Creek Vineyards Gewürztraminer 2010

BIG nose of honey, melon and wisteria flowers. Strong flavors of lychee, minerals, melon, spices and honey. Hint of sweetness. Lots going on in this white, but even though it is busy, it is well balanced. Pleasantly oxidized with a short finish. Memorable FLX Gewurtz.. — 7 years ago

Sans Oak Sawmill Creek Vineyards Cabernet Franc 2017

This review is for the 2017 Cab Franc Sans Oak. Yes, you read that correctly, sans oak. Served chilled. It’s the grown up version of rosé. It’s mature and smooth and delicate. And it’s just a wee bit chewy and a nice set of stone fruit notes ... cherry. And yet very raw ... not mature. No tannin flavors ... no acid. Just delicate ... not at all what I associate with cab franc. Try it. Chilled. Instead of rosé. On the hottest August day with a grilled pork loin. — 7 years ago

Sawmill Creek Vineyards North Block Riesling 2013

Very light color with just a hue of yellow. Nose of petroleum, flowering note, dried apricots, and a touch of lime. Taste of refreshing acidity from lime, flowering note, decent sweetness, and a slight touch of sour cherry and stringent. Aftertaste of nice lime, light, but a bit watery. Overall, a nice Riesling form fingers lake region. — 9 years ago
