Description
Ontario winemakers are showing increasing interest in Pinot Gris, one of the noble grapes of Alsace. Fielding is particularly adept with it, producing wines of considerable structure that express a great depth of fruit character. This one will be juicy and floral with honeydew melon, orchard fruit, citrus and spice. It has the freshness and zesty acidity to be enjoyed on its own but would be particularly great with a creamy seafood pasta.

Tasting Notes
Enchanting suggestions of white flowers, apple, pear and white peach set the stage. It's juicy and medium-bodied, with some tangy citrus emerging on a wave of fresh acidity. The substantial finish interplays baked and fresh-picked apple flavours. (VINTAGES panel, March 2015)
