Other New Releases

Viognier ’09 –  This wine is pale gold in color with aromas of ripe apricot and pineapple, stone fruit with touch of orange blossom and tangerine. Fresh and crisp – intense flavours of tropical fruit mingle on the palate. This well balanced Viognier went up against Canada’s best at the All Canadian Wine Championships and received the only Double Gold.  If you haven’t fallen in love with Viognier yet…. now’s your chance.

Syrah ‘09 – This Syrah was co-fermented with a small amount of Viognier.  Dark purple in color with aromas of ripe raspberry, blackberry, spice and enticing floral notes.  The palate is full of toasty cocoa, dark berry with a hint of spice.  Soft silky tannins with excellent length.

Library Releases

We held back a few cases of our Merlot ‘05 and Sauvignon Blanc ‘08 ……after hiding them for months we decided to crack open a bottle of each.  We are very pleased with the wines….. perfect for patio dinners this summer.  Limited quantities available on each.

Sauvignon Blanc ‘08 – Under cork this wine has aged perfectly.  Aromas of stone fruits rise from the glass.
On the palate granny smith apples and citrus notes mingle with a touch of minerality.  Fresh and lively.

Merlot ‘05 – Deep ruby red in color, with aromas of dark fruit, cedar and forest floor.  Intense flavors with soft supple tannins.  Long clean finish.
