The growing season in Niagara started with a mild winter and no spring frost events, with no significant vine damage reported. Spring was warmer than usual, prompting some growers to report an early start to the season, up to a week ahead of normal. Niagara’s summer was marked by above-average temperatures, with warm days and warmer-than-usual evenings. The region experienced a reduced diurnal temperature range, but this resulted in intense flavoursand colour development in the grapes. Veraison occurred up to five days earlier than usual for some varieties. The harvest season was favorable, with warm September temperatures and some humidity linked to extreme weather events. Despite some disease risk, especially for white varieties, growers who waited for their red varieties saw exceptional ripeness and good acid balance, reminiscent of the excellent 2020 vintage.

Tasting notes

Expressive and vibrant, the 2024 Sauvignon Blanc opens with an inviting bouquet of tropical pineapple and classic gooseberry. The palate unfolds with soft lemongrass and a silky texture, lifted by bright, refreshing acidity. Layers of grapefruit pith and tart Granny Smith apple add lively tension, while a lingering note of fresh tangerine carries through the finish. Delicate floral nuances emerge at the close, hinting at the spring blossoms just around the corner. Stunningly sophisticated—try with crab dip and potato chips or grilled octopus with salsa verde.
