Lightfoot and Wolfville Scheurebe (750ml)

Relatively obscure in North America, with less than 10-acres planted in all of Canada, Scheurebe is a German vinifera grape variety and relative of Riesling (a crossing of Riesling and Silvaner) that is characterized by an exuberantly aromatic and tropical profile.  It is pronounced “Shoy-ray-bah”.  It is grown mainly in Austria and Germany (and now in Nova Scotia!) and, like Riesling, makes a range of balanced wine styles; from sweet to dry.

Nova Scotia’s cool-climate provides freshness and vibrancy, melding with the inherent aromatic intensity of the Scheurebe grape to create a truly unique expression. This is a single-vineyard wine from Lightfoot and Wolfville’s Oak Island Vineyard site in Avonport, made from certified organic (Ecocert) and biodynamic (Demeter) grapes.
