Ultimate Beverage Challenge 89 points – 2018 Ultimate Wine Challenge – Bright citrus flavors of grapefruit flesh and lemon peel combine with more tropical flavors of honeydew and cantaloupe for a knockout of a nose. The palate shows a bit more indulgent tones of creamed orchard fruit and a hint of dry honey..June/2018 | Escape to Italy with our Pinot Grigio sourced from Trentino. Full and complex, this wine has a nose that hints of pineapple, pears and sweet lemons. Tropical fruits are integrated with the zest of citrus fruits and give way to a creamy mid-palate. We achieved depth and complexity through a combination of winemaking methods. First, grapes were hand-picked, de-stemmed and crushed prior to undergoing cool fermentation in steel tanks and an extended maceration. A small portion of the wine was made with the traditional passito method: we dried harvested grapes on straw mats for several weeks, then gently pressed and fermented them before blending. |

| Pale yellow tinged with green; a clean, concentrated floral nose reminiscent of elder and acacia flower with a hint of sage; ripe citrus fruits, gooseberry and mineral flavours on the palate leading to zesty, ripe acidity on the finish.
