WineDiva's Review

Waxy, slick, woven. Single varietal Semillion in the Okanagan is a rarity, yet this is one of Michael Bartier’s flagship wines, he's been making it for several years now. Grown on the Black Sage Terrace in Oliver (Bartier's estate) 2019 has 2% Gewurztraminer blended in.
Straw in colour it shows waxy notes of pomelo and candles, starfruit and yellow apples alongside white pepper and honeycomb. Notable citrus lines the palate with hints of wild herbs, yellow fruit and mineral It has excellent concentration, is weighty and slick on the tongue; the finish is racy.
