JoieFarm Quotidien Brut 2016
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaApricot blossoms, tight pear, peach fuzz fill this new, foamy charmat fizz from Joie, a blend of riesling and chardonnay from vineyards in Kelowna, Naramata and Skaha. The 2016 fruit was dosed with Joie's riesling solera, which has been quietly ticking away, unsulphured. Prickly bright on the palate, riding a swell of residual sugar and an even higher swell of total acidity, this is meant to be enjoyed young and fresh (this summer). Quotidien means "your daily ration", if you need a reason to drink fizz daily. A serious price for anot so serious wine.Tasted: 27 July 2017Tasted by: Treve Ring & Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $25.00 | 750ml | winery direct |
