Hester Creek Old Vines Trebbiano 2025

Golden Mile Bench, Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaA cool, savoury take on one of BC’s heritage whites. What’s gained in freshness from a mostly stainless steel ferment seems offset by ripe, fruit forward flavours and just under 6 grams of residual sugar, making this more of a summer sipper than a gastronomic force. Apples, candied lemon peel, and almonds fill the palate, with a citrus and licorice finish. This year’s edition is better suited to spicy foods that can stand up to its ripe flavours. This is a pleasant wine and will have many fans, but how about a drier single block version too?Tasted: 26 March 2026Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
