A soft, subtle white wine without a lot of acidity and subtle notes of white melon and white apricot. Dry. The founders of this winery were Italian bricklayers, thus the name. The winery is located on the shores of Lake Erie in southwestern Ontario. Pair with light seafood dishes.

Bright pale gold and declared 13% ABV. Composed of cool climate Chardonnay - Pinot Grigio blended fruit. Unique. Slightly tart stone fruit dominant with medium body. Pair with citrus drizzled pan fried white fish. Tasted Feb 2017. Rated 86/100.
Monique Sosa - Accredited Sommelier rated this wine as 86/100 with the following review:

Odd right? This Chardonnay-Pinot Grigio blend shows major floral and mineral aromas with white grapefruit, pear, hay and a slight resinous pine note. Serve uber chilled on a hot summer patio. Tasted Feb 2017 - @sommsosa | bespoketastings.ca
