British Columbia, CanadaA Fraser Valley sparkler, this was made with estate grown pinot noir, traditional method. A minor brush of colour previews a very fruity, red cherry, red apple and grapefruit palate with a hint of spent lees and brioche. The bubbles are bigger than I would like, but this is a good start. The acidity suggests you served it with something cheesy or creamy for balance. It just needs a little tightening up to get to the next level.Tasted: 01 October 2022Tasted by: Prices:

British Columbia, CanadaThis traditional method blanc de noirs (typo on the label) is from Fraser Valley pinot noir, and starts off pink grapefruit crisp before a red apple palate with bitter lemon and pear skin. Relatively short as it warms in the glass, enjoy this very well chilled.Tasted: 31 October 2022Tasted by: Prices:
