A Best Buy |
| TASTING NOTE: Inspired by the oaked Sauvignon Blancs of Bordeaux and Pouilly-Fumé, Hidden Bench uses estate fruit from Rosomel Vineyard in Beamsville Bench and ferments the wine in 100% French oak, of which 20% was new, 20% second fill, 7% third fill and the remainder neutral. Look for lovely grassy and hay notes, with hazelnut, peach, grapefruit, citrus, oak spice, and a flinty edge. Pair with seafood. |
