Critic's Rating 93 pts

Named in memory of Henry’s wife, widow and family matriarch, Catharine Smith. Clonal selection and the use of traditional grape varieties (Chardonnay and Pinot Noir) makes this wine a modern Niagara expression of a time-honoured wine style. The secondary fermentation is done in bottle and this wine is aged for 24+ months on the lees before disgorging.

Winemaker's Notes

• Made from the blending of 70-80% Pinot Noir with 20-30% Chardonnay;

• Grapes were handpicked and bunch selected, then gently whole-cluster pressed;

• Secondary fermentation was finished in bottle followed by a further 30 months aging on the lees.
