Recommended by Shane at Cin Cin in Vancouver, beautiful cross of Riesling and Pinot Bianco, beautiful floral and bright fruit aromatics, with PB texture and lovely acidity

From a single vineyard planted on pink clay and limestone, fermented in concrete and aged in Acacia casks. Still super tight, so decant if you choose to open a newer vintage within next few years.

Beautiful structure and depth. Over ripe pineapple, spice, crushed rocks and chamomile. Didn't really show its true beauty until day two. Serious wine, seriously delicious.

Interesting new variety for me, a cross between Riesling and Pinot Blanc, and it tastes like it. Spice from the riesling, and lovely waxy texture from the Pinot Blanc. 11.5 abv, plenty rich, this variety has a lot of promise for other regions.

Jaune soutenue
Nez fruit jaune et floral lourd et épicé
Bouche pleine mais avec un côté métallique et finale assez courte herbacée
Je l ai dégusté nettement mieux

Interesting but not amazing. Loved the wax closure. Supple, with a lemony finish.

Probably my favorite Foradori wine to date. Beautiful floral aromatics. Fresh apricots. Beautiful, soft white tea tannins. A conversation wine.
