This French oak-aged Canadian wine embodies both the classic Fumé Blanc style and the power of the exceptional 2020 Niagara vintage. The aroma reveals a captivating bouquet of grapefruit, buttercream, pear, caramel, and banana. The first sip offers a refreshing burst of classic Sauvignon Blanc characteristics with vibrant notes of citrus, honeydew melon, and white peach, with a touch of fresh herbs and mint providing subtle contrast. The mid-palate and finish are impressive, allowing the wine's fullness and richness to shine through. The ripeness of the 2020 grapes and oak aging are clearly evident, with a rich body and warming notes of spice, vanilla, and buttercream stealing the show.

Perfect accompaniments for this wine are a classic Spaghetti Carbonara or a cedar-grilled trout with a dill cream sauce.
