Vinification The 2008 growing season began late due to a cool spring but July and August presented higher temperatures allowing for steady photosynthesis resulting in excellent sugar accumulation. A moderate September and October arrested sugar development permitting the grapes to mature and develop their great Okanagan flavours.

Winemaking As with our award winning and staff favourite 2007 Vintage, this wine is the purest free run juice. This wine is allowed a long cool fermentation to maintain its intense flavours and aromas.
|
Aroma / Bouquet / Nose This wine displays fresh, vibrant, bright aromas of citrus and green apple. The consistency of palate bursts with more pure fresh green apple, melon and citrus. The finish is clean and bright.

Food and Wine Pairing Magical pairing with all types of Asian Cuisine - the adventurous may enjoy our Riesling with dim sum, or Asian BBQ, or an exotic fruit plate with Edam and Gouda.
