Quaffable, fragrant, juicy.
Lunessence launched in 2014 after taking over a property in Summerland.
Their philosophy is a part of their name: Lunessence where Luna=Moon + Essence. The essence of the Moon. Moon as an important part of biodynamic farming that they are implementing. There are no pesticides or herbicides used in their vineyards with a focus on natural wines; they ideally use only native yeast, no, or minimal fining (only bentonite and time), and very light or no filtration at all.
The Field Blend is 64% Riesling with Gewurztraminer and Pinot Blanc, the former two were aged on lees for five months in stainless steel. It's a pretty wine, fragrant with orchard fruits and pink grapefruit, honey, lychee and orange blossoms. It's off dry and juicy with crunchy fruit flavours and boasts mouthwatering acidity and notable concentration. Quaffable, pristine and delish.
