Made from clone 76 chardonnay, this wine is straw coloured with medium-light intensity. Aromas of apples, butter, lemon and delicate toast and honey greet the nose. Well balanced with a creamy texture. Flavours reflect the nose followed by a medium-long finish with flavours intensifying. Impressive!

2018 Haywire Pinot Noir
Okanagan Crush Pad
$26.90
The fruit came from Summerland and Oliver and fermented on ambient yeasts in large concrete tanks separately before being bottled unfiltered. Garnet red in colour with medium-minus intensity. Dried cherry, vanilla, and meaty aromas on the nose. Very good balance with silky smooth tannins. The flavours mirror the nose followed by a medium-plus finish. This wine greatly improves with decanting and time to open up. Serve with oven baked chicken thighs.

Garnet/black with deep intensity. The nose is rich, layered and complex with aromas that include red and black fruit, earth, spice and cocoa. Very well balanced with smooth ripe tannins.
