No grape is more Swiss than Chasselas. This wine is an homage to the Baessler family's Swiss roots. Winemaker Charlie Baessler describes this varietal as more of a feeling than a flavour. A dry, delicate wine, expressing citrus and apple blossom- a must try with a cheese fondue or traditional Swiss Raclette. Drink slightly chilled, now or cellar 5 years. Chasselas will continue to evolve.
Proud growers Roxanne and Dennis Mutch- a couple that always have a little dirt on their boots- continue to deliver extremely aromatic and balanced fruit to our cellar every fall.Second Chance Vineyard is located on the Cawston flats and situated on Similkameen silty loam soils. Here lies a unique combination of day time heats, contrasted by cool evening air drainage and rich soils that complete this wine, tropical fruit characters balanced with grapefruit citrus tones make this Gewurztraminer a harmonious hit. Drink chilled, enjoy now.
The obvious gravel veins and scars of dried ox bows are the workings of the previous Similkameen River bed. Here lies the ethereal setting of LadyHawke Vineyard.

Drink chilled, enjoy now.

Drink now or cellar 3-5 years.
