Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, Canada2021 is a skillful blend of Naramata understatement and Similkameen wilderness fermented in stainless steel and blended post ferment. Expect a stony, fresh, electric version that is delicious. Look for apricots, honeysuckle, spice, and a silky smooth interior enlivened by squeezes of lime. Don't miss this one. It is a super cool BC white wine, and the price is very amenable.Tasted: 12 July 2022Tasted by: Prices:

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThis year's viognier came off their Naramata Bench home site, as well as Similkameen. Bother were whole cluster pressed and cool fermented in stainless until fermentation was complete, when they were blended together. Viognier's inherent lushness is aptly held in check here, with fragrant apricot, ripe peach, honeysuckle gliding across a sleek cold cream base, dusted with gingersnap spicing. Well placed lime-laced acidity easily brightens the 13.9%, leaving the palate fresh. Very smart wine, with great varietal typicity, without being a caricature (so easy to do with this grape).Tasted: 28 July 2022Tasted by: Prices:
