2022 White Meritage
A nod to classic Bordeaux-style white wines, this blend of Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc was fermented and aged in French oak barriques, imparting a broad, rich texture with complex aromas of ripe nectarine, pink grapefruit, acacia blossom, and clove.
Viticulture
Farmed by a veteran viticulturist, the Semillon comes from the Osoyoos West Bench, just north of the town of Osoyoos. The Sauvignon Blanc is from our estate Sunflower Vineyard, located south of Oliver in the new Golden Mile Slopes sub-GI.
Semillon: Teya Vineyard – Osoyoos
Sauvignon Blanc: Sunflower Vineyard – Golden Mile Slopes
2022: A moderate growing season with an unusually long, warm fall, producing vibrant, fresh wines with full phenolic ripeness
Winemaking
Fermentation and maturation in neutral French oak barriques provides a round, creamy texture, balancing the refreshing acidity of the Sauvignon Blanc and framing the expressive fruit of the Semillon.
