Our goal for our Sauvignon Blanc is to reflect the unique Niagara terroir and this wine always delivers. 2024 was a warm, slightly wet early season, but beautiful dry harvest characterized by average crop levels on the vines.

Nose: Even more intensely tropical than usual, aromas of mango and passionfruit leap forward with the kiwi, lemongrass and lime-leaf more in the background.

Palate: The palate has bright acidity matched by a slightly fuller, creamier texture, with passionfruit dominating, followed by dragon-fruit, key-lime, lemongrass and sweet thai basil immediately behind.

Finish: The finish is smooth and long, with notable flinty minerality appearing at the end. Drink now or in the next 3 years.

Pairing: Enjoy with pan-fried halibut, fresh pesto and anchovy paste pasta, or lemon & herb roasted chicken.

Our 2024 Sauvignon Blanc was harvested on Sept. 24, 2024, and gently pressed into a stainless-steel tank where it settled for two days before being racked off lees. We chose to inoculate with a selected yeast and fermented at a very cool temperature to preserve its freshness and beautiful aromatic. After fermentation, it was split into two different vessels for aging: a portion of wine was transferred into Acacia and neutral French oak puncheon, and the remaining wine stayed in stainless-steel on lees for 7 months. We bottled this wine in March 2025.

The goal with our Sauvignon Blanc is to reflect the uniqueness of Niagara terroir – this wine shows it in spades!

Nose: Very intense tropical aromas of pineapple, passionfruit, and mango lead to kiwi, lemongrass, and lime leaf on the nose.

Palate: The palate has bright acidity matched by a creamy texture, with key lime and starfruit battling with passionfruit for supremacy. Lemongrass and honeysuckle poke through in the background.

Finish: The finish is surprising, with the flintiest, “wet stones in a mountain stream” minerality ever seen in our Sauvignon Blanc. Drink now or in the next 3 years.

Pairing: Enjoy with pan-fried halibut, fresh pesto and anchovy paste pasta, or lemon & herb roasted chicken.
