'Geisy Guy'
Geisenheim, Niagara, Canada
A savoury aromatic everyday orange we canât get enough of. Our Ontario House line is the local edition of our GW House Wine project bringing interesting, delicious, well-made & well-priced wines to your table. The Geisy Guy is named after its juicy, hybrid grape Geisenheim and made by our pals at PGV from three parcels across the Niagara Peninsula: two in Four Mile Creek and one in Short Hills Bench. The first was picked early and pressed directly, the second was macerated on skins for 10 days, and the third was macerated on the skins of the second parcel, as a second pass. This âsecond passâ is likened by the winery to Italyâs famous ripasso or âgo over againâ method, a technique that entails adding left over skins (with so much to give!) into a new batch of juice to add an extra OOMPH factor. Grapes are then aged in neutral French oak for six months to give this Geisy Guy a solid leg to stand on. Flowers flowers everywhere, oolong, mosaic hop-y, fleshy structure of white nectarine, fuzzy white peach & lemon pith. Enjoy while debating amongst friends, coworkers or the table next to you, if âgeisy guyâ was added to the lexicon of Toronto slang, what would it mean?
