Our Whites
Adalmiina
Wines made from Adalmiina have very good body with a light floral and citrusy nose.
They present well as a stand alone varietal, or can be used in a dry white blend to add body.
This wine goes quite well with seafood and cream based dishes. Some say it is similar to French Muscadet with potential for really nice sparkling wines too.
Fruit chemistry is excellent for dry white wine production, producing around 22 brix and around 6-7 g/l acidity.
Frontenac Gris
With a brilliant balance of fruit and acidity Frontenac Gris typically creates lively and refreshing wines.
Unique and complex flavors make this an excellent grape for table, dessert, and ice wines.
Frontenac Gris is usually cold pressed to make a white wine that can present aromas of peach and apricot with hints of citrus and tropical fruit.
