VQA Lincoln Lakeshore
TASTING NOTES: Elegant aromas of ripe apricot and white peach, with white flower notes. The palate is rich with flavours dried apricot, mango and peach flavours. There is good mid palate texture with hints of warm wood spice. And finish is fairly long with some lemon notes.
WINEMAKER’S NOTES: The vintage of 2023 was an exceptional year in Ontario for grape growing. Winter was relatively warm with little snow and temperatures were above normal for most of February and March and had us all thinking about an early spring. Bud break was right on time!! However warm conditions were in order from the beginning of May and throughout the summer, there were some hot spells but also some very wet spells as well leading to some concerns with disease pressures. September was warm and dry and harvest began early with grapes were picked in ideal conditions with good maturity and intense flavours.
Grapes were grown on a lakeside property in the sub appellation of the Lincoln Lakeshore owned by Tony Martin. Vines planted on a south facing slope giving potential for full ripeness and intense fruit character.
The grapes were mechanically harvested, destemmed and crushed before pressing. The juice was transferred to French oak barrels for fermentation after settling. Cool fermented using a selected yeast, this wine has developed a rich texture being aged on its lees for 12 months. The wine was filtered before bottling.
