Corcelettes Methode Traditionelle Brut 2022
Keremeos, Similkameen Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe 2022 Methode Traditionelle comes off the Corcelettes Estate Vineyard on the Upper Bench, Keremeos, in the Similkameen Valley. The vines are hand tended, the fruit hand harvested, and hand sorted from a vineyard that is raised using sustainable, responsible, and organic farming practices. The secondary ferment in the bottle sees the wine aged on its lees for 15 months. Look for fresh lemon and yellow fruit scents. The palate is similarly bright with a tight mousse and strong mineral and saline notes under a citrus, green apple finish. This must be served with food to balance the freshness. Freshly shucked oysters would be the ticket, or a favourite soft cheese.Tasted: 16 September 2024Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $59.90 | 750ml | winery online or BC Wineshop |
