A real fruit salad of a wine — a blend of Chardonnay, Chardonnay Musqué, Pinot Gris, Muscat, Gewürztraminer, Viognier and Sauvignon Blanc. Medium straw in colour with an apple and lychee nose; complex flavours of grapefruit, apple and lychee. A well-balanced, medium-bodied wine.
Food match: trout in almonds, chicken paprika.
Creekside Laura’s White 2010, Niagara Peninsula, $18.95. Vintages #121764
