Tasting Notes
"A light shade of bronze in the glass, aromas of tropical fruit, floral notes and citrus waft easily from this medium-bodied, silky-smooth textured gem. It dazzles the palate with a surge of pure ambrosia with lip-smacking tang riding a wave of lemon curd and crunchy Granny Smith apple juxtaposed with lemon chiffon pie and baked apple. The balance between tang and ripe fruit flavour is crisp and refreshing. There’s persistent purity of flavour from first to last drop with the finish and aftertaste crisp and clean. Pour with white, three-cheese pizza—Gouda, chèvre and Brie, grilled or pan-seared seafood, or a summer salad."

The Producer
Henry Of Pelham
Henry of Pelham Family Estate Winery is an Ontario winery that released their first vintage in 1988. The namesake of the winery, Henry (Smith) of Pelham was an early settler in Upper Canada’s Niagara Peninsula. His father Nicholas, the first settler, was Pennsylvania Dutch and a United Empire Loyalist who sided with the crown during the American Revolution of 1776. We named the winery Henry of Pelham after great-great-great grandpa’s son, Henry, who we think had a pretty dry sense of humour, nicknaming himself “Henry of Pelham” after a British Prime Minister. He was quite the entrepreneur, building an inn and tavern on the property and operating a toll road. He raised sheep. And grew grapes—some of the first to be planted in Canada. Our tasting room and wine store are in Henry’s carriage house. In 1984, when our parents decided to replace Henry’s concord and Niagara grapevines with old world vinifera grapes, the Niagara wine scene hardly existed and there were a lot of naysayers—but we had done our homework. Heat scans proved we had the right conditions, and we bettered our chances by contouring the hills and installing drainage. At the time, we were one of only a few Niagara wineries to make premium wines from our own grapes.
