Nose

Soft aromas of blueberry, sweet oak, caramel and fresh flowers.

Palate

The wine is seductive by its soft texture, intense flavors of dried herbs, Asian spices, berries and sweet tannins.

Growing Conditions

The record low rainfall and record of frost during spring contributed to small berries, low yields and an early harvest in 2008. The Parallel 2008, based on 89% Cabernet Sauvignon and 11% Merlot, is extremely charming.

On the Ski Slopes, Black Diamonds let you know that you are about to experience the most exhilarating ski-runs the mountain has to offer. At Parallel, “BD” (Black Diamonds) is used to mark only a few of the barrels of wine we produce. The 2009 Parallel Release of “Black Diamonds” Estate Cabernet was the beginning of a branding program that will recognize a Black Diamonds Ski run each coming year.
