A blend of fruit from 4 different vineyards from 4 different sub-appellations across the Niagara Peninsula.

Nose: This wine explodes out of the glass with wonderful mulberry, cherry kirsch, pomegranate, and raspberry followed closely by dried basil and tarragon layered over mushroom and tobacco leaf.

Palate: The warmth of the 2021 vintage shows with some air, revealing more fullness and roundness than is expected. The palate shows good fullness in the mouth with glacé cherries and sugar beet, followed by damp leaves and dirt mixed with wet stone, and traces of spice.

Finish: Expect a long, lingering finish. Balanced acidity follows a soft & supple mouthfeel that will age well for 3-4 years.

Pairing: Pair this wine with grilled chicken or a fungi flatbread.

Hand-picked on September 20th & 21st (Bock & Senchuk) and October 8th & 26th (Hemeris & Huebel), all vineyards were fermented separately.

Grapes from Bock & Hemeris Vineyards underwent fermentation in 2 concrete tanks, receiving 2 pump-overs 2x per day throughout the fermentation process before being gently pressed off-skins and transferred back to concrete tanks to be aged for 10 months.

Grapes from Senchuk were 25% whole cluster pressed into stainless steel tanks. The skins were punched down by hand 2x per day throughout the fermentation process. This was gently pressed and racked to neutral oak barrels to be aged for 10 months.
