| Vinification This vintage was very consistent and crop yields were low but fruit quality was excellent. The cool harvest temperature slowed the accumulation of sugars and allowed us to hang the fruit longer and develop more varietal character. The cool harvest temperatures were particularly kind to Pinot Gris. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Winemaking Our Pinot 3 is comprised of 36% Pinot Gris, 33% Pinot Blanc and 31% Pinot Noir and was whole cluster pressed to impart intense fruit character from the pulp while adding no color or astringent tannins. This wine was fermented in stainless steel containers for 25 days and the luscious Pinot Gris was cold soaked on its skins for 8 hours to add structure and depth to the flavours. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Aroma / Bouquet / Nose Lush aromas of orchard pear, red apple and juicy watermelon entice your senses while this intriuging wine imparts a crisp, lively palate. Expect a complex yet well balanced finish. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Food and Wine Pairing This wine offers so many layers to its flavour that it pairs well with a variety of foods. Whether barbequing salmon or roasting chicken, complement this wine with a light cream sauce and herbs such as cilantro, chives, dill or thyme. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
