VQA Prince Edward County

Tasting Notes: Nectarine and underripe mango emerge on the nose, with honeysuckle and beeswax filling in the background. Hard peach and nectarine evolve into subtle spice and nuttytones, while hints of caramel and custard surface with aeration. The palate is complex, full, and rounded, revealing layers of anise, spice, and citrus peel, all balancedby bright acidity and a touch of salinity. The finish is longand lingering, with a pleasing nutty character.

Food Pairing: Roasted chicken with a roasted root vegetable medley, smoked pork loin, seafood pasta (shrimp & scallops) and hard aged cheddars.

Winemaking Notes: Sourced entirely from our South Clos vineyard. Whole cluster pressed, then fermented and aged in French oak barrels for 16 month, 20% new barrels. Full malolactic fermentation in barrel.
