Keith Tyers Closson Chase Winemaker Chase away the winter blues with our new and upcoming 2013 vintage wine releases –  red or white we’ve got you covered.

2013 Closson Chase K.J. Watson Pinot Noir VQA Niagara River

Notes of red fruit, cedar and mushroom make this wine a perfect fire-side companion to pair with comforting, slow cooked meals.  Bright and round in the mouth with bright acidity and a red fruit finish – perfect to cuddle up with.  Enjoy now through 2017.   [$34.95]

Suggested pairing: Mushroom risotto with braised beef short ribs and wilted brussel sprout leaves

 

2013 Closson Chase Vineyard Chardonnay VQA Prince Edward County

Using very little oak, this Chardonnay is a great vehicle to profile the Prince Edward County terroir.  The nose opens with flint and mineral, followed by hints of white fruit and lemon custard. Mouth is round with pronounced acid, caramel and cream brûlée finish.  Cellaring potential: 5 years. [$27.95]

Suggested pairing: Boneless, skin on chicken breast stuffed with Proscuitto & Boursin cheese

Available March 28, 2015.  (Sneak preview available weekends at our cellar door.)
