100% Organic Chardonnay

This wine scored 90 Points and won Silver medal in Wine Align's National Wine Awards of Canada 2021!

"I love the sharp focus and the stony, salty, mineral notes. Electric on the palate, this sparkler is built for the ages with a foundation of Okanagan acidity that defines the north Okanagan as the true cool climate of Canada. Already six years in the bottle, you can feel the creamy textures and toasted lees notes that permeate its refined mousse, yet it has an electricity that sets it apart from most of its peers... This is real wine." –Anthony Gismondi, gismondionwine.com

Rubbery on the nose and mouthwateringly fresh with a pronounced minerality, salty almost. Also a little bit earthy and mushroomy with a moderate acidity. This sparkler is so crisp it’s electric.

Truly one of a kind and now a favorite.
