Wine Details
Price:
$13.95 per bottle
Description:
Due to severe low temperatures in the winter of 2005, Pinot Grigio crops were much smaller than previous years. In response to this significant shortage, the Creekside winemaking team searched international vineyards to acquire Pinot Grigio that reflected the style and flavour profile that best matched our award winning Niagara style. The resulting blend consisted of 12% domestic wine with the remainder as a careful blend of international vineyards. The wine was fermented and then cold stabilized in stainless steel. Bottled April 2006.
