WINEMAKING NOTES: The nose is complex with aromas of fresh dough, lemon cream, and stony minerality. On the palate, the mousse is fine with flavours of white cherry, red currant, angel food cake, almond, fresh croissant and brioche, complemented by refreshing acidity on the long finish. Perfect to drink now, but will further develop complexities through short to medium term aging. Enjoy with fresh oysters, halibut, or lobster. Also, a perfect pairing with triple cream cheeses and potato chips. Or serve on its own as the perfect aperitif. VINTAGE NOTES After a fairly cold winter, mild weather began in March but it was some time until real warm weather began, giving the growing season a slow and wet start. The summer was quite warm and allowed for full phenolic maturity in all varieties. Harvest started in the second week of September for sparkling and was quickly followed by early ripening whites such as Pinot Gris, followed by Chardonnay and Riesling at the end of September and early October. The temperatures were mild but a bit wet so Pinot Noir and Gamay were also harvested early October followed by Cabernet Franc in late October. There was a snow storm in mid November so yields were reduced on Cabernet Sauvignon which was harvested in late November. The quality of the grapes was very good to excellent with high acidity and concentrated flavours throughout the portfolio. Wines should have the capacity to age for the medium to long term.
