Promontory is a powerful and evocative expression of its isolated, rugged canyon terroir in the Oakville hills. The wine is characterized by a deep, opaque garnet-purple colour and a complex aromatic profile that balances intense dark fruits like crème de cassis and black cherry with profound non-fruit elements such as wet stone, graphite, moss, and forest floor. On the palate, it is renowned for its unique structural tension; it is full-bodied and massive yet possesses a remarkable "molten" tannin quality that is both voluminous and incredibly fine-grained. The finish is exceptionally long and mineral-driven, reflecting the diverse volcanic, sedimentary, and metamorphic soils of the estate.
