Hello Everyone!
It has been a long but busy winter. We have been working away on our new barn which should be ready for next year’s opening season. We have also been busy making new creations in the winery for your enjoyment this season.
Something totally different in our product line this year; hard cider! Tom has created a delicious apple cider with subtle carbonation. Note that as it is carbonated, tastings for this product will be done at certain times otherwise the cider will go flat
We have a new white – Proprietor’s Reserve – which is a blend of three grapes and yes, one of my new favourites, hence the name. We have a new release of Frontenac Gris; a bit different in taste from 2012, looking forward to seeing what you think of it. The vintage has changed from 2011 to 2012 for the Barrel Fermented Chardonnay but it still has that soft smooth butterscotch taste.
New in reds, we have a Marquette Cab Merlot and something that you have all been asking for – Marquette all on its own. Marquette Chete (Shona word for only) will be released when the doors reopen.
So when can you taste the new products? The tasting patio reopens on June 7th at 11am. After that, we will be open Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from 11am to 6pm with last call for tastings at 5pm. Tours will resume on Friday June 13th – Fridays 1pm or 4pm, Saturdays 11am or 4pm; the cost of a tour is 15/person and it lasts about an hour and a half – but remember to book ahead at least a week and note that our dates are already filling up.
Cannot wait to see all of you and find out how you faired this winter.
And Remember to Celebrate Always!
