Cedar Creek Crafted In BC Pinot Gris 2024
Introduction
CedarCreek Crafted In BC Pinot Gris 2024 is a unique white wine from the Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, Canada, produced under a special regulatory exemption. Founded in 1988, CedarCreek is a pioneer of the British Columbia wine industry and is currently owned by the von Mandl family, who have championed a winemaking philosophy of minimal intervention and sustainable viticulture. This 'Crafted In BC' edition was necessitated by a severe 2024 winter freeze that destroyed nearly all local fruit, leading the winery to source premium grapes from the Willamette Valley in Oregon to be processed at their Kelowna estate.
Wine Description
This 100% Pinot Gris presents a straw-yellow colour and a sensory profile that balances fresh acidity with generous fruit concentration. The nose is defined by inviting aromas of Golden Delicious apple, ripe pear, and white flowers, with subtle hints of almond and spice. On the palate, the wine is lively and 'friendly', offering flavours of fleshy white peach, cantaloupe, and green apple. It features a supple mid-palate and a round, vibrant finish with a touch of mineral character. To add depth and texture, 90% of the wine was fermented in stainless steel while 10% was fermented in neutral oak. This vintage has an ABV of 13% and approximately 7.3 grams per litre of residual sugar, and while the home estate is certified organic, this out-of-province fruit is not.
