Wine Description

The Hands Up White is a vibrant, off dry blend typically composed of Frontenac Blanc, La Crescent, and Riesling. In the glass, it displays a bright, pale straw colour, leading to a fragrant nose filled with tropical aromas of pineapple and mango, alongside notes of ripe pear and wild sage. The palate is crisp and medium bodied, offering a slight viscosity balanced by a refreshing cool climate acidity that carries through to a long, clean finish.

Food Pairing

This versatile white wine is an ideal companion for a variety of bright and fresh dishes, such as summer salads, curry dishes, or seafood croquettes. It also pairs beautifully with roasted chicken served with fennel and carrots or a platter of fresh oysters.
