Dry, rich barrel-fermented single varietal L’Acadie Blanc white wine made from 100% Nova Scotia grown grapes
Winemaker’s Notes
Fermented and aged in a French oak Demi-Muid (600L barrel) and aged for ten months. The larger format barrel reduces the flavours imparted to the wine by the oak while maintaining the micro-oxygenation through the wood. Micro-oxygenation helps to add weight and body to the wine. Regular bâtonnage (stirring of the lees) was carried out, until the wine was ready for bottling, to add even more weight and mouthfeel to the palate.
