Wine of the Month - February 2012
Colio Estate Vineyards 2008 Gamay Noir 

There is not a large production of Gamay Noir in Essex county and when it does find its way into a bottle of wine it is often used as a blending grape.

Colio's Gamay Noir is Lake Erie North Shore only 100% Gamay wine!

Tasty spice and black pepper notes along with a nice balance of cherry fruits are the recipe for this delicious red wine.

Pelee Island Late Harvest Riesling 2008 Review

Winemaker’s Notes:
The Redbud Tree, pictured on the front label, is Ontario’s rarest tree. In fact, Pelee Island is the only verified location in Ontario where this tree occurs naturally.

As unique as the Redbud Tree is to Pelee Island so is our Riesling. It is an ideal balance of cool-climate acidity with a fragrant orchard fresh aroma and a delicate peach bouquet.

Food Recommendations:
A perfect complement to appetizers, seafood, cheeses and light meats.

Grape Composition: 100% Riesling
Alcohol: 12.5 %
Residual Sugar: 36.1 g/L
