Product notes

Pale color with straw reflections. Aromatic and typical nose evoking scents of ripe apple and lime, but also flint. It is a wine with a rich taste and a very pleasant vivacity. The balance between the acidity and the sweetness of the natural sugar in the mouth make it an excellent partner for gastronomy, as recognized by the sommellerie for German wines.

Bien que relativement peu connu des amateurs de vin, Pelee Island est la plus ancienne région viticole de l’Ontario et elle abrite le premier établissement vinicole commercial du Canada fondé dans les années 1860. Située à 26 kilomètres au sud du continent, Pelee Island est la plus grande île du lac Érié. Le vignoble de Pelee Island Winery s’étend aujourd’hui sur environ 550 hectares de vignes qui bénéficient de la plus longue saison de croissance au Canada. On y cultive plus d’une quinzaine de cépages, dont le riesling qui a servi à l’élaboration de cette joyeuse cuvée Lola. C’est un riesling moderne, sans prétention, qui révèle des arômes de limes, de pommes et de fleurs blanches, ponctués de notes minérales. Un peu de sucre résiduel bien perceptible accentue la richesse en bouche, mais l’acidité du vin assure l’équilibre et la fraîcheur de l’ensemble.

Servir à 10 °C. Idéal pou tenir compagnie aux pâtes aux fruits de mer, aux brochettes de crevettes aux agrumes, aux calmars frits, au poulet au citron, au fish’n chips, aux huîtres à la lime, ou aux sushis.
