From the Niagara Peninsula, Ontario wine region, Flat Rock Twisted 2023 is the Special Anniversary Edition of this Twisted Blend produced from sustainably grown Riesling, Gewurztraminer and Chardonnay grapes (74%/15%/10%). Fresh with aromas of grapefruit, ripe stone fruits, lychee, ginger spice and a briny mineral finish zesty on the palate, it is excellent value at $20, Flat Rock's Twisted wines are celebrating 20 years with this excellent rendition of their original Niagara white wine blend.

Special Anniversary Edition food pairings: pork tenderloin, sushi, chicken Alfredo, green salads topped with steamed and chilled shrimp.

Reviews and Ratings

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

This is the 20th anniversary vintage of the Flat Rock Twisted and it's definitely worthy of its own celebration or accompanying one of yours. Aromas include, peach, golden pear, orange, ginger and lychee. Medium bodied, this wine is a bit off dry, but with lots of acidity and rich fruit flavours, all coming together in a well-balanced package. There is more rounded orange and citrus on the palate along with some ginger and warm spicy notes. Enjoy with this spicy seafood and noodle dishes and cheers to 20 years!
