Strawberries with a hint of spice. Fabulous dark pink hue. Nice find!

Low alcohol helps quiet the often aggressive nose usual with this varietal; less nail polish remover and more white peach. Somewhat thin on the palate, disappears in a hurry without lingering. Not my style, but fairly well made.

Fruit forward, heavy peach notes, excellent when aerated. Not too sweet. Love it! One of my favourites from Hester Creek.

#bcwine #okanagan 2013 Hester Creek Trebbiano, Okanagan, BC. Ripe and lush with notes of Asian pear, white peach, pineapple and grapefruit peel. Soft and round; medium bodied. Shows how Trebbiano can create a lush wine in a desert climate from 40 yr old vines. #wine #sommelier

Grapefruit on the nose... On the palate, the peach takes over with dried grapefruit still there as well... The tartness of the grapefruit lasts through the medium finish.

Very easy and smooth to drink. Nice citrus and mineral flavours without being over powering

Quite acidic, riverstone, peach, some lime. Effervescent. A unique wine really. Tasting blind, you could be forgiven for throwing out a half dozen grape varietals that this could be. Very interesting under the trees on a hot day in the yard.

My new favourite white. Lime, grapefruit, nectarine, but balanced acidity. Lucious, absolutely love this refreshing wine.

Heavy nose with not a long finish. Very nice white peach up front. We also go through a few of these when released.
