Local and a Good Thing

fieldingFielding in the latest local winery to produce a white blend combining a light, tart feeling with exotic, Muscat flavours. Refreshment with a tease. Simplicity wiht a shot of glamour. See what a little Gewurztraminer and barrel fermented Chardonnay can do for the usually conservative Pinot Gris. I think that Ontairo is on to something with this style of blend because it turns basic dry white wine into something with more crowd appeal. Get the family together for Sunday brunch and be prepared for complements. Also sure to delight at any summer patio lunch. Call the winery. www.fieldingwines.com

FIELDING ESTATE 08 Conception White, VQA Niagara winery only $18.95

P.S. This wine is names after one of Fielding’s vineyards that was once a popular ‘parking’ spot.

If you’re there check out the off-dry Rosé. Lots of zest for party sipping or alfresco meals. Featherstone is a genuine cottage winery and you’ll not meet nicer folks than owners David and Louise. Best newsletter in Niagara.
