Weekend Tasting!!
See Ya Later Ranch!!
"...complex spicy aromas..."
"Join us this weekend
as we taste a range of wines from See Ya Later Ranch! The winery owns 171 acres
of estate vineyard with 101 acres planted. The Hawthorne Mountain Vineyard has
the largest planting of Gewürztraminer in North America, with 65 acres planted
to this varietal.
We will begin with
the 2008 Gewürztraminer ($16.99). This wine displays a spicy aroma of lychee
fruit and rose petal, with hints of pink grapefruit. This shows rich, exotic
flavours of lychees and ripe melons balancing it's crisp acidity and off-dry
finish.
Next is the 2009 Jimmy
My Pal ($15.99). Jimmy My Pal, the winery's SPCA Fundraising wine, is 40%
Chardonnay, 30% Pinot Gris and a new component of 30% Semillon. All the fruit
is separately fermented in stainless steel tanks. This is rich in stone fruit,
melon and pear notes. The palette is enjoyably soft, full and approachable.
The 2007 Pinot
Noir ($21.99) is up next. This shows aromas of black cherries and mild oak. The
palate features strawberry and cherry, followed by a long, full finish.
Finally we will sample
the 2007 Rover ($24.99). Rover is a distinctive and outgoing blend of Shiraz
& Viognier, displaying powerful, rich, and complex spicy aromas of plums,
cherries and blueberries. See You Here!
See You Here!"
