This has a nice core of apple, melon, pineapple and pear flavours with a rich texture, hint of spice and racy, mineral finish lingering with a touch of tropical fruit.
The nose shows hints of sweet petrol already with ripe citrus, ginger-jasmine spice, key lime pie and a subtle core of minerality. It’s a riper style, showing those fruity citrus notes with some peach and petrol/mineral/smoke action going on. A complex and provocative Riesling.
This benchmark South East Kelowna Riesling experienced a stellar, warm vintage, yet its trademark mouth-watering acidity, vibrant palate and mineral finish ensure refreshment. Fuji apple, ripe pear, lime zest and spicy guava pervade from nose to finish. Its off-dry sweetness loves chili squid.
A mouth-watering wine with firm acidity, lots of petrol, intense apple, citrus curd, salt and white peach, with a core of stony mineral. Sleek and elegant, but with a lot of power and backbone.
This rose-hued Pinot blend of 80% Meunier and 20% Noir serves up complexity, minerality and a snap of tannin. Fragrant cinnamon and macerated red-berry aromas give way to red currant and pink grapefruit flavours en route to a crisp, appetizing finish. Prime consideration for the Thanksgiving table.
Beautifully focused with crunchy green apple, lime, citrus peel and a touch of petrol. Bright, mouth-watering acidity, great backbone and texture; slightly off-dry, but with great balance and a long finish. A bargain.
Now this is something: a serious Gris that’s not afraid to let its freak flag fly. 70% of the fruit is barrel-fermented and barrel-aged in old, neutral oak barrels for 6 months. The nose shows ripe McIntosh apple, melon, poached pear and spices that swirl around the edges yet never overpower the fruit. It has some weight and viscosity on the palate and some tannic structure, but it is the fruit, laden with apple and pear, that shines in the mouth with bits of spice and honey, all balanced out by a firm beam of acidity.
