Tasting Notes

This mixed case includes 12 bottles: 6 bottles of Ward 5 and 6 bottles of First Contact.
Ward 5 Brut Blanc Cherry Valley Prince VQA Ontario
Our favourite bubbly wine with a special twist this year: we have added some Sauvignon Blanc to our classic Vidal cuvée, made in partnership with Lighthall Vineyards in Prince Edward County.

This is a small batch cuvée, made through the Charmat method.
We had an instant crush on this new vintage: the beautiful bubbles are so nicely integrated and complement the wild floral aromas of the Vidal, all backed by the bracing acidity of the Sauvignon Blanc.

2019 First Contact Skin Fermented White VQA Ontario
Vidal and Sauvignon Blanc (50/50ish) were sourced from the infamous Wismer Vineyard, in Niagara's Twenty Mile Bench. Grapes were crushed and fermented on skins for the entire primary fermentation, which lasted 17 days. The juice was then left to settle and bottled during the first signs of Spring in March 2020.

Deep straw gold in colour with punchy aromatics of fresh fermentation; Green tea, Meyer lemon, tangerine, hops, olive brine & salted almonds. Truly energetic and fresh with notes reminiscent of a delicious Weiss Beer. On the palate, it has a great tannic structure, lovely acidity and beautiful balance. With low alcohol at 11%, this wine was built to drink, not just to taste. This wine is vegan friendly. We have been having fun pairing it with a variety of vegetables and meats using Middle Eastern, North African & Mediterranean inspired spices and techniques. Or even just a bowl of marinated olives, to keep it simple.
