Primary aromatic are rooted in fruit, with raspberry, black cherry and black current at the forefront, with subtle notes of crushed black pepper, lavender and earthier tones finishing the aromatic profile. After deliberate oxidation, a note of mint becomes evident, courtesy of the compound piperitone, found in a lot of cover crop vegetation in our Zweigelt block. The palate mirrors the nose, with a focus on black fruit compote, specifically cassis and blackberry. Tannin structure is fine, but grippy, although well integrated into the mid-palate and tail. Bright acid encapsulates a baking spice dominant woody note, due to time in a neutral single 500L puncheon for two years.

Alternatively, Jamaican curry chicken with a ginger beer and scotch bonnet marinade will perceptively increase the body of this wine, while still showcasing the acid and spice.

This wine was fermented cool and reductively, using selective yeast that creates an ester and terpene driven aromatic profile. The palate is a repeat of the aroma, with notable lemon zest and underripe citrus fruits. Racy, but balanced malic acid rounds of the tasting component, making this a fresh and lively interpretation of Niagara Riesling. This is a wine that can age for decades without losing character, instead over the years it will develop a deep golden hue and a shift in the flavours profile more towards of honey and petroleum.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFOOD PAIRINGS AND SERVING TEMPERATURE  \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile its young, this wine is best served at 6 °C.
