WINEMAKING NOTES

Crafted using the traditional press method, this rosé is made from gently pressed Pinot Noir and aged entirely in stainless steel. It is not a by-product of red wine production. Every decision in the vineyard — from canopy management to harvest timing — was made with the sole intention of creating a rosé of precision, elegance, and finesse.

Vaïla is serious yet playful, delicate yet expressive — a wine made for summer. The 2025 vintage arrives at a modest alcohol level, displaying its signature pale salmon hue. Aromas of rhubarb sorbet and pink grapefruit rind leap from the glass, followed by the bright, crunchy red fruit character that BC rosés are increasingly celebrated for. Quite simply, it is sunshine captured in a bottle.

    Tasting Note This is a riveting, bone-dry classic of the genre. It pours moderately deep salmon/copper. The nose is immediately pinot noir and piquant with redcurrant, rhubarb, cherry and grapefruit along with considerable sage herbality. It is medium bodied, structured and serious, and a dry, scouring but not austere palate. Alcohol is stated as 12.5% but there is modest warmth here, along with some bitterness. Quite powerful yet balanced with excellent length. Destined for the table, not casual refreshment.
