Hester Creek Old Vines Block 16 Trebbiano 2021

Golden Mile Bench, Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaBlock 16 Trebbiano has roots that date back to 1968. Over the years, it has transformed itself from a soft, slightly sweet white under cork to one of Canada's white wine wonders under screwcap. It is destemmed and fermented cool in stainless steel before ageing in the tank for three months. In 2021 it remains fresh, with delicate floral styling apeing northern Italy. The palate is awash in green apples, sweet melon, tangerine, and sharper nectarine. What smells sweet is dry and clean through the finish. Prawns on the barbie make a pleasing appetizer. This is a special wine with no real competition.Tasted: 08 March 2022Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
