Sprucewood Shores Riesling  2009

Sprucewood Shores Estate Winery has been on a roll lately with their new releases. Three fanastic Chardonnay's, one barrel fermented, one with a little bit of oak and the third with no oak at all. With all the chardonnays going on their Riesling could easily be overlook but you will be missing a real treat if you do.

Excellent value paired with a fanastic Riesling make this a great summer time choice. Looking for a refreshing summer time sipper? This is it. It's light enough to sip on, lots of tree fruit such as peach and lemon followed by a wonderful mineral backbone to make this one the most complete, complex and balanced Rieslings sold in Essex County.

Pelee Island Eco Trail White 2008 Review

Sun 11, Apr. 10
1 Reviews
0 Reviews 5 overall score

Winemaker’s Notes:
Eco Trail is a blend of Auxerrois harvested when it reached 19.4 brix, and Chardonnay harvested when it reached an average of 19 brix.

Serve at 16 degrees Celsius with poultry or seafood. This is another excellent sipping wine great for sharing with friends and family out on the patio or over a great meal.

A true blend of Chardonnay and Auxerrois. A wine of lingering fruit with a pronounced floral bouquet and clean crisp finish.

Serve at 16 degrees C.
