2020 Sparkling Taille – Blanc de Blancs
BC VQA Certified
Sparkling Taille Vinification Notes:
After taille (second) whole cluster pressing, the wine was separated and fermented for each varietal and farm it was from. This gave us the best insight to create our fruit forward blends. Aged in stainless steel tanks and some neutral barrels until bottled. Added organic cane sugar and VR44 yeast to kick off secondary fermentation in the bottle for this aromatic sparkling wine. Aged sur lie (fine lees) for 36 months. Disgorged and a traditional French dosage added at 10 g/l.
Tasting Notes:
This aromatic style sparkling wine has balanced acidity, and brings forward peach, citrus, lemon and stone fruit notes.
Food Pairing:
This wine is great on its own and it pairs well with smoked salmon, olives, charcuterie, apple crumble and popcorn.
