Fume Blanc
Beamsville Bench
The Sauvignon Blanc grape originated from France’s Bordeaux and Loire valley regions. These vines are heat tolerant and grow quickly, requiring consistent pruning for best results. This Fume Blanc originates from two of the oldest Beamsville Bench vineyards including the Kew estate vineyard and a fifty year old vineyard on Mountainview Road.
Classic notes of gooseberry and citrus, along with a hint of grass on the nose, soften to notes of ripe mango and candied tropical fruits. With a bright and fresh mouth feel, notes of pear, peach and white grapefruit are complimented by toasty hazelnut on the crisp and fresh finish.

WINEMAKER'S NOTES
In Ontario, Fume Blanc must consist solely of the Sauvignon Blanc grape. Harvested midseason and aged in older French oak for eight months, lends a subtle toasted quality to the wine. We believe this wine demonstrates our winemaker’s artistic craftsmanship and showcases the depth of the character of the fruit.
