Westcott Vineyards

IN THIS MONTH’S THREE-PACK:

Celebratory bubbles, a smooth chardonnay, and an elegant pinot noir from terroir-focused winery, Westcott Vineyards.

2019 Brilliant Sparkling Rosé
VQA Vinemount Ridge
$32.99

Finely moussed, this pretty pink-hued pinot crafted in the traditional method presents notes of red berry jam and toast with a sprinkle of nutmeg. Pair with Spanish-style tapas like blistered peppers, garlic shrimp, and cured ham.

2020 Estate Chardonnay
VQA Niagara Escarpment
$29.99

A perfume of white flowers, jasmine green tea, brioche, and banana also lands on the palate. An opulent mouthfeel nods to excellent balance and structure. Remarkable for its youth. Pair this superb wine with creamy potato leek soup and chicken terrine.

2018 Estate Pinot Noir
VQA Vinemount Ridge
$31.99

Notes of violet, cherry, earth and spice on the palate. Acid and tannins are noticeable but wonderfully measured such that this light-bodied pinot remains floral and delicate. Pair with salmon in phyllo with mustard, mushroom risotto, or goat-cheese mini quiches.
