Tangy, pristine, delicious. Spearhead's winery and home vineyard (the Gentleman Farmer Vineyard) are located in South East Kelowna but they also have the Coyote Vineyard in West Kelowna and the Golden Retreat Vineyard near Summerland. Made by Grant Stanley who heads up the winemaking this Concentrated Riesling offers lemon curd, chamomile, honey, apricot and green apple aromas. Tangy with lip-smacking acidity it's concentrated, has a lovely slick weight and oodles of beeswax and citrus peel flavours. The finish is pure lime pith,
Pair: holiday Turkey, mixed greens, creamy sauces or seafood.

Unique, juicy, quaffable.
Spearhead (formerly Spierhead) makes this white from red grapes (Pinot Noir) by avoiding any skin-to-juice contact. It is quickly whole cluster pressed and the free-run juice is quickly separated from the skins. It is the fermented in small stainless steel tanks.
Distinctly peachy with tangerine layers woven with vanilla and honeysuckle aromas. It is fresh and juicy, entirely quaffable with a zesty and fruity character. Very Pinot Blanc-like and totally unique.

The result is always delicious; distinct peach and tangerine aromas are layered with honeysuckle. It is tangy and juicy and entirely quaffable with expressive pristine fruit and a zesty mouthwatering finish.
Pairs Great with Gone Crackers Roasted Shallot & Herb

Unique, slick, zesty.
Hamilton Vineyard in Southeast Kelowna produces the Pinot Noir grapes for this minimal skin contact white wine made from red grapes; the free run juice is captured while avoiding colour extraction. The juice is fthen ermented to complete dryness in a stainless-steel tank.
I've preferred earlier versions of this wine, but it's still a refresher. Expect notes of small tart red berries and wild herbs, melon peel, wet soil and vague undertones of peach and bacon fat. It has a slick texture and zesty character with flavours of green almond and grapefruit peel.
