Le Vieux Pin Winery introduces the latest addition to the family… As they say, sometimes the sum can be greater than the parts, hence the name “Sigma”: international symbol for sum. From the 2008 vintage, came a red, white and rose. The latter two wines are ready for release, so it is with our utmost pleasure to be able to offer them to you!

2008 “Petit” Le Vieux Pin Sigma Blanc $20.90
Production: around 400 cases
The Winemakers Notes
Our goal was to craft an aromatic, crisp and a unique wine. As such we decided to fuse several unlikely suspects; Viognier, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio, Gewurztraminer and Chardonnay.
This wine tours you on the aromatic map. Its bright floral nose suggests elderflower and citrus blossoms: light and lifted. The texture of this blend is soft and fleshy, with subtle viscosity that is mouth filling yet refreshing. It has beautifully balanced acidity and a quiet sweetness that voices of white fruit, pineapple, pears, and star fruit.

2008 “Petit” Le Vieux Pin Sigma Rose $20.90
Production: Just over 100 cases
The Winemakers Notes
We decided to bleed 3 different clones of Syrah to give us a spicy, fruity and balanced Rose.
The nose of this wine is a lifted mélange of sweet fruits and spice, so typical to that of the syrah it was made from. It speaks of sweet cherry pie, white peppercorns and peppermint sticks, layered with golden honey and fruit salad. The soft entry on the palate bursts with syrah’s signature spiciness, and immediately broadens over the tongue with a balanced acidity that tingles the cheeks. Delicate and refreshing, it teases the senses with a lingering finish of forest fruits and the thoughts of the perfect picnic.
