About this winery
Stanners Vineyard is a small family vineyard and boutique winery dedicated to producing premium Pinot Noir. Cliff and Dorothy work side by side with their son Colin and daughter-in-law Mary. During especially busy times we can always count on family members from the Toronto area to show up for a strenuous week-end in the vineyard, followed by an evening of good food, excellent Pinot Noir, great guitar, and singing.

Product notes
The Chardonnay grapes come from their vineyard and another vineyard in the county.
Production notes
The growing season was relatively cool, resulting in grapes with bright, vibrant flavors and crisp acidity. The grapes were hand-harvested, destemmed, and allowed to remain on their skins for two days before pressing to enhance complexity and mouthfeel. The wine fermented in French oak barrels and then aged in barrels for 32 months.
Tasting notes
It reveals inviting notes of vanilla, lemon, and walnuts on the nose and palate, enhanced by a hint of toasted oak. It has a medium-bodied, fruity palate and a refreshing finish. Pairs well with poultry and fish.
