Kerner Late Harvest Wine Details
Price: $19.99 per bottle

Description: Spicy fruit and tropical and aromas abound in this late harvest wine made from our estate grapes in the South Okanagan Valley. The 2002 growing season was warm, allowing excellent fruit flavours to develop. The wine was vinted in a lighter style, making it a perfect accompaniment to many desserts. This Late Harvest Kerner was harvested on January 6, 2003 at 28 Brix.

Varietal Definition
Kerner:
Grape developed from a cross between the Riesling and Schiava Grossa grapes. The latter variety is known as the Trollinger in Germany where it is mostly grown. Used to produce a Riesling-like white wine said to often reach "Auslese" Pradikat quality.
