BEHIND THE LABEL | Pinot Gris 2025
Every bottle has a story. This one begins high above the valley floor in a naturally farmed, dry-farmed vineyard on the Naramata Bench. With no irrigation, the vines dig deep, drawing character from the land itself.
After the devastating 2024 freeze, the vineyard pushed forward. The surviving vines carried a smaller crop, but one that ripened beautifully through a long, generous growing season. The fruit hung late into the fall, developing remarkable concentration and flavour.
In the cellar, we chose restraint. Fermented entirely in stainless steel with no malolactic fermentation, allowing the vineyard to speak clearly.
Just 64 cases were produced.
In the glass, it opens with a warm straw-gold hue and tropical aromatics kissed by the late-season sun. Mango leads the palate, layered with subtle spice and finishing crisp, dry, and beautifully structured.
A small lot with a big story.
Already one of the standout wines from our 2025 collection — and finding its way into glasses faster than we imagined.
🍷 Available at the tasting room and online.
