Twenty Mile Bench, Niagara Peninsula, Ontario, CanadaThomas Bachelder, long heralded with his skilled hand at chardonnay and pinot noir, has turned his eye towards gamay, with a series of releases from the 2020 vintage, including two from Wismer-Foxcroft Vineyard, the special Twenty Mile Bench site known for its exceptional chardonnays and pinot noirs. Planted in 1993 to magnesium and limestone laced soils, this gamay was 52% whole cluster. Silken smooth, the palate is gilded with herbal raspberry, herbal crunchy plum, white peppercorns, wrapped with long, soft tannins and lit with a bright acidity. The finish is long with white pepper.Tasted: 05 May 2022Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
