Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaEn Terre is an exciting new project at Terravista Vineyards. The first release is a traditional method sparkling wine, crafted from a 69/31 blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay sourced from Naramata's En Terre Vineyard and Kaleden’s Ercego Vineyard. It showcases a refined effervescence that offers early morning bakery aromas, accompanied by citrus and apple notes within its creamy, rounded bubbles. The bone-dry wine features bracing acidity, which pairs beautifully with smoked salmon blinis—making for a delightful start.Tasted: 23 August 2024Tasted by: Prices:
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaEn Terre is a new project from Terravista Vineyards, allowing the owners to expand beyond their original portfolio. This traditional method fizz blends 69% pinot noir and 31% chardonnay, from En Terre Vineyard in Naramata plus Kaleden's Ercego Vineyard. The juice was fermented and rested for three months before heading to bottle and 16 months in triage. This was disgorged May 2024 with zero dosage. Brisk and brusque with crunchy apple, pear blossom, and cider notes, with assertive bubbles finishing with a snap. Though crisp and dry, this may benefit from a gram or two of RS to offset the sharp acidity in future. A welcome addition to the portfolio.Tasted: 01 September 2024Tasted by: Prices:
