  Recently, a small cache of missed 2012 Tradition bottles were found still aging on their lees. The total time on lees from going down in late 2012 to late 2018 was six years/72 months. A very small amount of the 2012 Tradition Extended Lees was produced. Typically only available by request, one bottle per guest, not available for tasting or on the regular stock shelves at the winery. If you have enjoyed the sparkling wines of Kew Vineyards, this might be one to seek out. But keep it a secret or it will disappear in a flash. ;)

  Balanced Riesling, lightly off dry with crisp acidity. Lemon-lime, peach, and wet stone. True to its regional style. Lovely wine ideal for sipping, equally comfortable with and without food, and worth acquiring a few bottles to watch it age and develop to and possibly beyond its fifth year.

  Concentrated aromas of blackberry, plum, blackcurrant, vanilla, chocolate, and coffee. Full body, big polished tannins, and just enough acidity to prevent any jammy nature to this wine. Very balanced and approachable, easy to drink and enjoy. Pretty good value too. I like how it is often available in both the 375 ml and 750 ml formats at the LCBO in Ontario.
