Technical Details

Our house-style of Rosé is bright and refreshing with a pale colour and great fruit…built for warm summer days and good company!

Nose:

The nose is so vibrant the red fruits such as cranberry, raspberry, and strawberry, with lovely watermelon leading to savoury notes of thai basil, lemon zest, honeysuckle and hints of orange blossom

Palate:

The palate shows more strawberries and cream, with a watermelon, salty and mineral/stone background. The texture is rich but fresh with a delicate finish.

Pairing:

This bright, refreshing Rose was built for light & refreshing dishes like salads, pizza, and pasta.

The 2023 vintage offered an amazing cool, steady and long growing season with normal yields, allowing us the opportunity to craft a rose from numerous different vineyards across the Niagara region. Three different vineyards were harvested for this rose starting on October 5th with Gamay, October 10th with Pinot Noir and finally on November 3rd the Cabernet Franc. Each red variety was left on skins over night to get extra colour, then was direct pressed into stainless steel tanks where the juice was allowed to settle. All grape varieties were fermented separately at cool temperatures to preserve aromatics and fresh fruit. This wine was bottled in March 2024.
