Hidden Bench Tasting Event; 8/1/2023-8/2/2023 (Hidden Bench, Ontario): Winery tasting: Wine 4: This is not the first time I have their Fumé Blanc, I've had it at a restaurant in Ottawa (Riviera, amazing btw) paired with Lobster Linguini. This is a delicious oak barrel aged Sauvignon Blanc with a lot of citrus, peach, vanilla and some grass notes. It is a very aromatic wine and has excellent QPR! Bought more.

On the nose: freshly squeezed orange juice, chalk, flinty strawberries, and tropical notes (mango skin?).
On the palate: nicely weighted and perfectly balanced - fat, acid, and sugar.
Ideal enhancement to a balmy late summer evening.

This could rival the great Bordeaux whites. Pours a pale gold in the glass, pop and pour with citrusy carnitas.
On the nose: honeyed stone fruits, and a mineral astringency.
On the palate: granny smith apples, pears, grapefruit, and a honeydew finish with a hint of oak spices.

On the nose: cantaloupe, a touch of oak, apple juice, and a little minerality.
On the palate: gentle acidity counterbalanced with a touch of fat, very smooth.
Excellent wine for a warm humid summer evening, before leaving Canada for 3 months.
