Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
The 2023 Grand Reserve Sauvignon Blanc is overflowing with citrus and tropical fruit on the nose, with subtle tones of passionfruit puree, ripe melon, lemon grass, savory herbs and snap pea. Flavours on the palate are dominated by gooseberry, crushed passionfruit, and mango with hints of lemon and grapefruit rind on the finish, keeping the palate crisp and refreshing.
Vineyard Notes
The mild winter of 2023 transitioned into a warm spring, prompting bud break 1-2 weeks early depending on location. However, hopes for an exceptional vintage waned due to one of the wettest growing seasons on record, heightening disease pressure until September. Conditions shifted in September, offering ideal weather for a classic Niagara vintage. Moderate warmth during the day and cool nights, coupled with minimal rainfall, preserved acidity and freshness in aromatic whites and sparklings, while reds achieved optimal phenolic and flavour ripeness with rich colour accumulation, allowing for selective picking tailored to desired wine styles. Overall a classic Niagara vintage across the board for all wines
Production Notes
This Sauvignon Blanc is harvested from two unique vineyards within the Niagara Peninsula. When the grapes were picked, the juice was allowed to soak on the skins for 12 hours prior to pressing. The wine was fermented in stainless steel at 16 C for 14 days using thiol focused yeast strains to reinforce the distinct varietal character inherent to each vineyard. Portions of each tank ferment were sent to neutral French oak for 5 months, post fermentation. Meticulous blending was done prior to bottling to ensure the most expressive and textured version of this wine is showcased.
Food Pairing Notes
This versatile, enticing wine is well matched with so many dishes – try it with shrimp tempura, fish tacos, grilled avocado burger, garlic & chili butter scallops and flattened barbecued Piri Piri chicken.
