| TRADITION SPARKLING 2020 VQA Beamsville Bench, Niagara Escarpment, traditional method |
| Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
KEW |
| Bright light yellow colour with fairly good effervescence. Fairly intense, gently complex, very faintly toasty, ripe lemon-apple meringue nose with some chalky-mineral notes. Fairly dry, medium to medium-light bodied, very slightly spicy, bright, yellow apple and pear flavours with a crisp, faintly quince-tinged, minerally finish. This pleasant, versatile, ready-to-drink, crowd-pleasing sparkler made from 50% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Meunier and 20% Pinot Noir was aged on its lees for five years. meaning that it was disgorged only in the past few months and may improve over the next year. It has 3.5% g/L residual sugar and 12% alcohol - there is no lot number on the bottle. |

| TASTING NOTE: This single-vineyard blend of 50% Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Meunier and 20% Pinot Noir was aged for five years on the lees. It's a crisp, dynamic expression of excellent bearing, elegance, structure and complexity, with touches of peach, grapefruit, orange citrus, biscuit, brioche, vanilla, and a distinct, characterful mineral note. |
