30% Baco Noir, 15% Cabernet Franc, 55% Riesling
Baco Noir and Cabernet Franc were hand harvested from the Trail Estate Vineyard. Fermented using Carbonic Maceration for 4 days prior to pressing and blending with Riesling harvested from Applehouse Vineyard, located along the shores of Lake Ontario in Prince Edward County. Fermented in stainless steel at a cool temperature for two months. Racked several times towards the end of fermentation and bottled with an aimed pressure of 3.5 bar. Ferment finished in bottle and bottle aged for 21 months prior to release.
The 2024 growing season was not without it’s challenges. Humidity and rain provided challenge and exceptional growth throughout the summer. Prince Edward County missed many summer storms that fell on Niagara. Both regions had warm weather throughout the fall, optimal conditions for ripening with great acid retention.
Bright and sparkling with notes of cherry and strawberries. Bright acidity paired with delightful bubbles on the palate. Flavours of cranberry, oranges and currants on the palate.
