We have once again teamed up with the absolute beauties at Lightfoot & Wolfville] Vineyards, and are excited to launch the 2021 Harvest Scheurebe Piquette.
Dry dry dry, with a big blast of elderflower, overripe pear, light brine, and fresh tropical fruit (I get lychee & papaya).
We made this using freshly pressed Scheurebe grape skins in late October last year. We soaked the skins in cold water to extract the sugars + acids still remaining after L&W had pressed them, then separated the liquid from the skins and let the piquette ferment out before a light dry hop with Eclipse hops and canning + can conditioning for a lively and bright carbonation.
This is probably the most refreshing thing we've made, and we are thrilled with this year's release. We feel like this really showcases the Scheurebe grape beautifully, highlighting what a tropical, fresh + fun varietal it can be.
