A Best Buy
TASTING NOTE: Pale lemon, almost platinum in colour with aromas of pear, spice, lemon rind, mineral and a floral element. Off-dry and fairly fruity, but also immediately freshened up with laser-precise acidity. Lots of citrus and mineral tones at play too. Mosel style meets a warm Ontario vintage. Cellar it 2-4 years, or enjoy it tonight with grilled salmon or tilapia with a spicy rub. (Vintages panel, Sept. 2011) Price $ 17.95
