Phantom Creek Estates Phantom Creek Cuvee 2018
750 mL
Phantom Creek Estates Phantom Creek Vineyard Cuvée No. 23 2018 is a flagship Okanagan Valley red blend from Phantom Creek’s namesake vineyard on the Black Sage Bench. Cabernet Sauvignon leads the blend, supported by Petit Verdot, Malbec, Cabernet Franc, and Syrah, creating a powerful and structured expression of this acclaimed site.
The 2018 vintage shows deep black fruit character with notes of blackberry, plum, cassis, dark chocolate, black tea, leather, vanilla, sage, and integrated toasted oak. Matured for 21 months in French oak, including 62% new oak, it delivers firm tannins, generous depth, and a long, polished finish.
This award-recognized vintage received a Silver Medal at the 2021 National Wine Awards of Canada, 92 points from WineAlign, and high critical praise including 95 points from John Szabo MS and 94 points from Sara d’Amato. It was also recognized with Bronze at IWSC 2022.
A premium choice for collectors, important celebrations, executive gifting, or anyone seeking a serious British Columbia red with structure, richness, and aging potential.
