Lillooet, British Columbia, CanadaEvery year this claws in more and more estate fruit, and this year its at 83%, complemented with 17% from Similkameen's Riverbend vineyard. After a whole cluster press, this was fermented in a mix of stainless (83%) and French oak, where it remained with twice-monthly bâtonnage for 7 months. Bright and fresh, with lemon curd, crisp pear, yellow apple, verbena on a creamy palate, finishing with a lemon twist. Crack and enjoy now with lighter protein dishes like crab cakes or turnip / chicken pot pie.Tasted: 08 December 2020Tasted by: Prices:| BC | $20.99 | 750ml | winery online/direct, select private retailers, grocery |
