About this winery
Canada’s fruit basket – one of the southernmost parts of Canada - an idyllic little peninsula with a unique microclimate due to the ocean-like Great lakes that surround it. Dolomitic Limestone abounds here - interspersed with clay - giving the wines intense perfume; a rich mouthfeel and a defining iron grip that speaks of the Escarpment where the grapes are grown – the same Escarpment from whence tumble the world-famous ‘Niagara Falls.’

Tasting notes
After a native ferment in primarily neutral French barrels, this rested 16 months sans bâtonnage before bottling. Creamy and ripe, with lemon curd, white peach, downy pear, and white blossoms on an expansive, lees-decked palate, finishing with a buzzy stony spice and an acetic lift.
