Waxy & Floral
Lighthall Vineyards is a small, proud, low volume and high quality winery located in enchanting Prince Edward County, Ontario, Canada. All their wines are produced in a non-interventionist manner and fuelled by passion as hearty as our vines. They also make cheese, designed to pair with their wines.
FRUIT BOMB ALERT!!! This thiol-driven version is absolutely bursting with a variety of fruit aromas, ranging from lime, melon, and stone fruit – a true tutti-frutti! A bouquet of white flowers and orchids complements the fruit, which continues on the palate to a very long finish. Ideally paired with a myriad of spicy south-Asian dishes.
The citrus driven flavours, aromatics, and vibrant acidity make it a great match for foods with a bit of heat. Spicy curries, Guaitiao (Thai noodle soup), Shrimp with noodles, or Chicken Masala with mango chutney for example. Leaner white fish like bass, pickerel, red snapper served with a fresh salad of greens with citrus segments makes a great summertime match. Creamy fresh cheeses like Brie, Camembert, or Crottin all are great, while classic Germanic foods like weisswurst, pretzels, and spaetzle also work well.
