Blue Grouse Quill Dry White 2019
British Columbia, CanadaQuill is an off-dry, aromatic Island blend of contract fruit from Cowichan and Comox, and in 2019 is made up of 35% schönburger, 26% pinot gris, 22% gewürztraminer, 17% sieberrebe, each fermented separately in tank prior to blending. Only the gris underwent MLF. There's some gentle sweetness here, made more apparent by the lowish acidity. There's a bracing passionfruit / guava bite that pierces this slight wine, pulling along pithy grapefruit, mandarin, melon to a snappy, shorter, somewhat ascerbic finish. Needs a brisk chill and some veg / seafood canapés to meet.Tasted: 25 September 2020Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:| BC | $18.00 | 750ml | winery direct |
