Vaïla Pinot Noir Rosé - $25

Made through the old Burgundian method of Saignée (literally to Bleed) this rosé is produced from free run juice and entirely steel tank aged. It is a fun, yet delicate wine absolutely perfect for the summer. The 2009 Vaila starts with a lighter hue and the flavour profile leans towards earth and straw, yet this wine still showcases the amazing bright red fruit BC rosés are becoming known for. 

The nose bursts with layers of ripe strawberry, cherries, melon, and spice. Pale salmon in color, the palate is both dry and delicate, delivering full notes of spice, cordial cherry, and marzipan. Vaila is completed with long and lingering flavours of plum and strawberry.

Recommended Food Pairing:
Charcouterie and artisan cheeses make for a classic pairing but herb roasted chicken with seasonal vegetables and pan drippings is a favorite.
