Detailed info

Compared to California's Napa Valley in terms of quality and notoriety, British Columbia's Okanagan Valley is a perfect match for Riesling, which Quails' Gate has been growing for the past 30 years. Vinification in stainless steel vats gives it a vibrant character and a very fresh profile where hints of lemongrass and Granny Smith apple emerge, complemented by mineral and vegetal notes. Avocado stuffed with Nordic shrimp, crab cake or fish tacos come to mind.

(Automatically translated) For lovers of dry Riesling. It comes from the coolest region of the Okanagan (Kelowna-Lake Country), which gives it a pleasant acidity to salivate. Aromas of green apple, lemon juice, nectarine, with subtle notes of wet pebble and honey. Order the sushi!
