The wines of Thomas Bachelder are inspired by his spiritual home – Burgundy – where the grapes he loves (pinot noir, chardonnay, gamay noir) originally evolved, where even the tiniest of vineyards are kept scrupulously apart in the winery, and then put separately, lovingly, obsessively into small, individual bottlings. His goal is to “keep out of the way” and let the best parcels and the most harmonious barrels come forward to liberate and define small patches of Niagara land. It takes a long time to discover terroirs, but the journey has its rewards.
750 mlThis a blend of single vineyards, put together to show the typical characteristics of the Niagara Bench. It's a gorgeous, red-fruited, crunchy wine with – typical for the 2024s – an impressive brightness of fruit: cherries, raspberries, and even some super fresh, small forest strawberry overtones. Although elegant, this wine is quite rich and lightly astringent and has beautiful ageing potential. A great nose of durable red and black fruit, currently with cloves and spice behind. Lovely and rose-petaled, rich in the mouth. The striking acidity and the glycerine-silkiness surprises! The finish is long, with only slightly perceptible ripe tannins. Delicious, good right now, yet there is a potential for improvement for the next few years. And it will hold deliciously for long after!

Since 1984, Markus Molitor has pursued a clear vision: to bring the great potential of the Mosel back to life – with distinctive wines that precisely reflect the interplay of vintage, ripeness, and origin. Meticulous manual work, selective harvesting, respect for grape and terroir, and the renunciation of standardizing aids define his winery’s philosophy.
The vineyard sites have ranked among the finest on the Mosel and Saar for centuries. Steep slopes, diverse slate formations, and the finest microclimates form the foundation for authentic, site-typical Mosel wines. Each wine reveals its origin, and every bottle stands for an uncompromising pursuit of balance, depth, expression, and structure.

Spearhead Winery is located on the benchlands of South East Kelowna.Their focus is on premium quality wine which they produce from grapes grown on their estate vineyard and from selected Okanagan Valley vineyards. The hand harvested grapes are sorted at the winery and fermented in small lots. They grow Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Riesling. Approximately 80% of 15 acres of vines is comprised of Pinot Noir including four different Dijon clones, 2 California heritage clones and Pommard. This combination of plantings enables their winemaker to select from the different characteristics exhibited by these clones to create a harmonious, complex Pinot Noir from our home vineyard. We also draw from a number of other vineyards in the Okanagan including Golden Retreat in Summerland and Coyote Vineyard in West Kelowna.
