2014 Small Lot Brut Late Disgorged

Nova Scotia’s coastal influenced terroir provides the ideal conditions for crafting Traditional Method sparkling wines of exceptional character and quality. Our cool climate and extended hang times yield Chardonnay grapes with remarkable freshness and depth — perfect for the precision and elegance of Méthode Champenoise sparkling wines.

This rare and limited release (only 500 bottles produced) is a single-vineyard expression of our Home Farm Vineyard in Wolfville, made from 100% estate-grown Chardonnay. The inaugural release of this wine in 2019 (as the 2014 Blanc de Blancs Brut) was one of our most acclaimed to date, earning top honours including the WineAlign Guide to Canada’s Best Wines 2020 - Top 10 Sparkling Wines, National Wine Awards of Canada 2019 - GOLD, and the Lieutenant Governor’s Award for Excellence in Nova Scotia Wines 2020. This Late Disgorged edition is even more precious, having aged on lees for a remarkable nine years, followed by an additional year of bottling aging post-disgorgement. This extended aging has resulted in unparalleled complexity, refinement, and depth — making it a true collector’s gem.

Tasting Notes

Straw-gold in the glass with a persistent bead of fine bubbles. The nose is rich and inviting, with aromas of toasted hazelnut, warm meringue, and fleshy yellow apple, layered with hints of brown butter pastry and crushed seashells. The palate is broad and viscous, offering a luxurious texture that unfolds with notes of white peach and lemon oil. Cool climate acidity provides balance, while the wine’s extended lees aging contributes to its depth and complexity. A lingering, mouth-coating finish leaves a lasting impression of citrus and toasted nuts.

Pairing suggestions include ricotta gnocchi with brown butter, crispy sage and shaved hazelnut, crispy duck fat potatoes with lemon aioli, triple cream brie with honeycomb or butter-poached lobster.
