Road 13 Sparkling Traditional Method Chenin Blanc 2017
Golden Mile Bench, Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaRoad 13's Sparkling Chenin Blanc has become an iconic wine not just for the estate, but for the entire Okanagan Valley. And for good reason: it's restrained with crystalline citrus and orchard fruits on a chalky frame, with subtle toasty notes in the background after aging three years on its lees. Nicely balanced with crisp acidity and a modest dosage (7 g/L), there's an impressive level of finesse here. Perfect with cream-based shellfish dishes.Tasted: 26 October 2021Tasted by: Prices:

Road 13 Sparkling Traditional Method Chenin Blanc 2017
Golden Mile Bench, Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThey make two chenin sparklers at Road 13 from the oldest chenin blanc vines in North America. The standard version is designed for early drinking and pure fun. Most attention is given to the acidity levels to keep the wine lively and fresh when the cork blows out. The primary fermentation is done in the tank, the secondary in the bottle, where the wine spends another three years on its yeast lees, building mouthfeel and palate length. Expect a fresh fruity nose with red apple, pears, and citrus before some toasted nutty notes pull the finish together and prepare you for your next sip. Ready to drink with your favourite Thai, Indian, or Chinese dishes.Tasted: 25 September 2021Tasted by: Prices:
