An ample, aromatic Naramata Viognier that could simply be at home anywhere you need it to be. From a finger sandwich and devilled egg-serving baby shower, to a popcorn-fuelled Amaz ing Race Canada viewing party, all the way to a relative-packed family brunch, never fear! A gentle nose-full of honeysuckle carried by the breeze, moves into a mandarin heavy ambrosia salad made with zingy, fresh pineapple that puts a pep in your step! Pinches of sweet spices, like spicebush and cooked nutmeg, tickle away, and a plump yellow gummy bear or two sneak across your palate. Through fermentation and aging in French oak barrique we get a dimension of lactic, brie rind tartness, and a subtly oaky, vanilla cool whip airiness, all sliced by an apple juice acidity. Finally you are left with a mouthful of lightly salted cream, spooned over nectarines in the height of nectarine season. Pour alongside sitting down to a salmon done your favourite way, and any manner of fresh or cooked vegetables, apron still donned, you are the captain of this ship. OUI CHEF! GOOD FOR — Reading Maya Angelou in the hazy afternoon sun. Hunting for the Ogopogo, binoculars, lasso and (large) net in tow. Tending to your neighbours expansive rose garden while they are away, you promised. Dipping your artistic toe back into the world of watercolours, there really is no time like the present! Show more
