GRAPE

chardonnay

 

Green tinged and straw coloured with floral, citrus (clementine and lemon) stone fruit, yellow apple and ripe pear on the nose. The palate is medium bodied, charset="utf-8"flinty and packed with fresh acidity, lemon zest and light toast. Balanced, structured and a layered, creamy texture give way to a lingering, spicy finish. 

 

Chardonnay is grown in many regions around the world due to its versatility in style andadaptability to various climates, but its true character can only shine in the right terroir. The Beamsville Bench sub-appellation is one of those, with the soils a mix of gravel, sand, silt, and clay layered in dolomitic limestone, the result of continuous erosion of the Niagara Escarpment and years of glacial activity. In the cool climate of the Bench, Chardonnay`s potential for greatness shows, resulting in elegant wines with fresh natural acidity and
intense aromatic expression.

All our wines are organic and vegan, respecting each variety at all times, so that they express in the bottle the place where they come from. The altitude, cold climate and poor soils result in wines with their own personality. Different among them, as the varieties are different, but they all maintain a line of freshness, fruit and minerality of our terroir.

GRAPE

Tempranillo, Graciano and Garnacha

Dynamic and youthful red wine, boasting a fruit-laden profile redolent of the zestful nuances of cherries and raspberries. Its spiced bouquet is intricately laced with delicate lactic undertones, crafting an inviting and complex olfactory experience. Upon tasting, its intensity and purity are pronounced, delivering a revitalizing and vivacious palate. Despite its nascent stage, it exhibits a robust structure and a seamless flow that beckons one to indulge further, culminating in a subtly bitter finish that accentuates its distinctive personality.

 

91 Points, Robert Parker Wine Advocate, (2020 vintage)

The 2020 LZ comes from an early harvest after a warm year not without challenges (mildew). The Tempranillo, Garnacha and Graciano grapes come from their own organically farmed vineyards and fermented in concrete vats with indigenous yeasts for 15 days; the wine matured in concrete for six to seven months before bottling. It's very primary and has notes of licorice and a juicy texture. Pablo Eguzkiza was telling me he likes 2020 better than 2019. The wine shows very good balance and fine, round tannins.

92 Points, Decanter (2020 vintage)

Domaine Bernard Defaix is a highly-rated family estate based in Milly, with the vines for this bottling averaging 30 years age. Ten months lees ageing adds to the complexity on both the nose and palate. Refined, classy and complex characters on show here, which meld beautifully with the ripe peachy fruit notes. A very fine, expressive, distinctive Chablis which is ready to drink now but will age very well for many years.

GRAPE

Corvina, Rondinella, Molinara

 

Produced with the RIPASSO technique deliberately applied in a more restrictive way than the production specifications, it is obtained by passing the Valpolicella Classico over the Amarone pomace only once. The result is an authentic local wine that elegantly displays a beautiful complexity of fruity aromas and spicy tones well supported by good acidity and the right alcohol content. 

A deep intense ruby red colour, with hints of red fruit, spices and cocoa on the nose. Warming and smooth on the palate, nicely balanced by rounded tannins. Perfectly matches with meat and cheese based dishes.

 

93 Points, James Suckling 

Intense, graceful and perfumed, with sweet violets, blood oranges, dry mushrooms, pomegranates and black pepper. Silky and supple on the palate with medium body, crisp and brilliant acidity and firm, crunchy tannins. Long, savoury and balanced.

This is light, crisp and steely with a cascade of citrus notes flooding in. Lemon, lime, Fiji pear and apple bounce around together. There is a creamy mouthfeel with a hint of banana which makes this a great midweek refresher.

Laurent Miquel produces elegant wines in his family vineyards high in the Languedoc hills of Southern France. He harvests at night when temperatures are cooler to ensure the delicate grapes are gathered under perfect conditions. Laurent represents a new generation of winemakers combining his ancestors’ wisdom with his innovative approach and an inflexible focus on quality. Working in harmony with nature, he creates wines of character which reflect the Languedoc’s inimitable style.

 

90 Points, Decanter

It’s hard to pick just one of the many excellent Viogniers that Laurent Miquel produces around this price point, but for the money this is hard to beat, with its voluptuous white peach and nectarine fruit (harvested at night, as the name of the wine suggests). Enjoy it young and fresh.(previous vintage)
