Katherine’s Sparkle BC VQA 2009

$30/bottle or $336/case

Katherine’s Sparkle 2009.  This wine is also BC VQA.  Ready now for the holidays!  Already down to the last few cases so please come by if you want some for the holidays!

This is our second daughter namesake.  Katherine’s Sparkle was created from Harvest 2009.  Comments from people that have had a chance to taste has been overwhelming! 

The wine is crisp and elegant.  It is a Brut and not traditional grapes but Ortega, Gewurtz and Bacchus.  It has the beautiful nose of Gewurtz.  It has the traditional bubbles produced from method classique and the flavours of the Ortega and Bacchus come through well. 

Rated an 87 by John Schreiner and quoted to say “a great crowd pleaser”.  “Brilliant” by Rod Phillips.  Jurgen Gothe had great things to say as well in his article in the Georgia Strait.  Troy Townsin talked about this sparkling as a great gift idea on CBC radio.  Bruce Wood and Bill Jones have told the winemaker it’s one of the best he’s tasted.  We were told well done!

Start off with some wonderful seafood, then try it with Jerk Chicken, Popcorn or Sushi.  End it off with fresh fruit, cheeses and of course chocolate!  A great drink with this is our Mure Royale.  Katherine’s Sparkle with a splash of our Wild Blackberry.  Cheers!
