Winemaker's Notes
Arresting, honeyed aromas of bruised apple, pear, earthy chanterelle and newly baked brioche. Fine, spirited effervescence delivers a rich mid-palate, and flavours of green apple, ripe pear, citrusy lime and orange zest, with an underlying, lasting salinity.
Composed 63% of chardonnay and 37% pinot noir; Both varieties were grown and hand-harvested from the Moira and Mottiar sites of the Beamsville Bench.
Bisous was vinified in the Traditional Method. The main component wine, comprising 78% of the whole, was from whole-cluster-pressed 2018 vintage grapes that had fermented in mature (eight years or older) French oak barrels.
This was augmented with the addition of a second base wine, blended and reserved from earlier vintages. Once bottled, the wine was transferred to our original cellar beneath the
Moira Vineyard to undergo secondary fermentation.
Disgorgement, in April 2022, followed 36 months on the lees.

Pale gold in colour; active mousse of tiny bubbles; toasty, apple nose; light-bodied, dry, green apple, green pear, and lemon flavours. Lovely mouth-feel with a lemony finish. Great length.
