Le Vieux Pin Ava 2019

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaAva is named after winemaker Severine Pinte's daughter. In 2019 the mix was 51% viognier, 37% rousanne, 12% marsanne. The nose is a floral affair with white flowers, orange blossoms, and summer orchard. The attack is juicy with apricot and peach, and a light dusting of citrus and licorice on the palate. Youthful and lively, but this will undoubtedly grow into itself as it ages to become a serious white wine. A good example of how diverse BC wine should be.Tasted: 11 December 2020Tasted by: Prices:
