Geisenheim & Marsanne, Niagara, Ontario
A light, lifted and perfumed orange for weeknight hijinks. Paradise Grapevine, our fave local fermenters have a glou-glou style that never disappoints, and an affinity for the best Niagara fruit. Aromatic, mineral geisenheim (30%), a hybrid grape that is prohibited in VQA wines (rebelrebel), spends 10 days on skins before being blended with honeyed, fruity marsanne left 20 days on its skins (70%, yes there is marsanne in Niagara!). The result is this zesty beauty, with a somewhat mischievous look it its eye. Salty citrus circus, wildflower infused honey, nectarine reduction, fresh apricots & green tea tannin. Pass out at the end of baby showers, Drag Race viewing parties or EXTENDED family reunions, you get an orange, and you get an orange & YOU GET AN ORANGE!
