16^¼/20

Lake Country, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaBlock 26 is a field blend inspired by the winery’s Block 26 planting at Carrs Landing, made up of pinot gris, riesling, and gewürztraminer. The block is picked once, and all three varieties are cofermented, something more akin to the Old World of wine than the new, but it is a technique we encourage in pursuit of upping your game in the vineyard. It is tiring just a bit a year down the road, but it remains a rich mix of floral, fruity, bitter, mineral, savoury flavours on the mid-palate and dry in the finish. Ready to drink with a variety of dishes.Tasted: 04 March 2021Tasted by: Prices:

Peak Cellars Fieldling Block 26 Field Blend 2019

Lake Country, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis field blend comes from the winery’s Block 26 at Carr's Landing Vineyard, at the Lake Country estate. Pinot gris, riesling, and gewürztraminer are co-picked and co-fermented. Crisp and tight and green, with celery, green apple, tart lemon on a crunchy, medium bodied palate, with sharp and high acidity, finishing with a snap. Best taken with a chill, and some fragrant brothy noodles to cut the acid.Tasted: 17 March 2021Tasted by: Prices:

Peak Cellars Fieldling Block 26 Field Blend 2019

Lake Country, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaBlock 26 is a field blend inspired by the winery’s Block 26 planting at Carrs Landing of pinot gris, riesling, and gewürztraminer. The block is picked once, and all three varieties are co-fermented. The result is like a little bit of lightning or electricity in the bottle. Look for peach, apricot, red apple, nectarine, pear, and melon rind. Floral, bitter, mineral, savoury, and fruity on the mid-palate and dry in the finish, and you have a winner. The ultimate blend is a 53/32/15 mix of pinot gris, riesling and gewürztraminer—a terrific wine for most vegetarian dishes.Tasted: 30 August 2020Tasted by: Prices:
