Wine Lovers' Notes:

In the Glass

Whiffs of lemon drops, white peaches and currants, with an undertone reminiscent of spring rain and wet stone. The palate replays these same elements with a framework of refreshing acidity, food-friendly residual sugar, and a clean finish.

"The honey, peach and floral notes found in this enjoyable organic white make it a winning aperitif, but also would work nicely with spicy foods, thanks to the hint of sweetness on the palate".
- Vines Magazine

"I am usually standoffish about dry Vidal, but this wine was a pleasant surprise. Off dry, it serves up peach, Asian pear, spice and citrus. Refreshing and easy drinking is its mantra".
- Evan Saviolidis, EvanWineSavvy.com

"I love it when I find a wine that's so low in alcohol yet so packed with flavour! It means you can enjoy it over an evening without falling asleep on the sofa at 7pm. This wine is liquid refreshment: light floral notes, white peach and melon. It's slightly off-dry (a touch of sweetness) which makes it perfect for dishes with a little sweetness or spice, such as glazed ham or light to medium curries and Asian fare. The bonus is that this wine is organic. Food matches: seafood, salad, pork"
- Natalie MacLean, NatalieMacLean.com

"Vidal is not regularly used for table wines, but this organic edition is quite fetching with fresh pear-pineapple, flower and some cut hay/grass character. It's off dry, fresh and lively with some apricot fruit. Very good length. Chill down and serve on the patio. Tasted May 2011".
- David Lawrason, Wine Align

In the Cellar

Sourced from two vineyards, Southbrook Estate (certified organic and biodynamic) 76.1% and Palmira Vineyard (certified organic) 23.9%.

Stainless steel fermentation with a mixture of indigenous and cultured yeast lots. Both Southbrook Estate and Palmira Vineyards lots were cool fermented separately in stainless steel prior to blending, gentle egg white fining, filtration and bottling. Bottled in 395g lightweight glass sourced from Ontario to reduce carbon footprint. (80% of the raw material for the glass comes from Ontario “Bag-it-Back” program). Closed with Stelvin to preserve freshness.
