Corcelettes Estate Winery 2014 Oracle Rosé

by Treve Ring | Nov 4, 2015

Corcelettes is a new Swiss family-run winery in British Columbia’s rocky Similkameen Valley. Small lots of interesting, intentional wines are turning out, including a homeland inspired white blend based on the Swiss Chasselas variety called Trivium.

Oracle is one such interesting wine that will demonstrate how a rosé can carry you through fall easily. Deep crimson in hue, the 2014 Oracle Zweigelt rosé was sourced from the LadyHawke Vineyard in Keremeos. Pomegranate, rhubarb and wild raspberries rule the medium-bodied palate, carrying ample fine stony spice, roses and wild herbs. Lovely concentration throughout, and enough to stand up to grilled pork tenderloin.
