Vinification 2006 was an abundant vintage with a long warm ideal growing season.
Acid levels were slightly higher than previous years so look for these wines to pair very well with a variety of cuisine.
|
Winemaking 100% barrel fermented, the 2006 Jimmy My Pal is a interesting blend of 52% Chardonnay and 48% Pinot Gris.
This wine saw oak aging in a combination of both French and American oak barrels.
|
Aroma / Bouquet / Nose The 2006 Jimmy My Pal shows rich aromas of tropical fruit such as melon, apricot and peach. The palate is fresh and clean with a creamy mouth feel.
We are happy to donate .50 cents for every bottle sold to the BCSPCA in support against animal cruelty.

Food and Wine Pairing Pair this fresh medium bodied wine with white fish dishes such as cod or halibut.
Use liberally with some fresh Okanagan Orchard fruits for a compote.
Fresh Peach or apricots would make a perfect choice.
