A dry wine with overtones of green melon leading to a crisp, clean finish
Light-bodied and dry, 11.5% ABV
Compliments the flavors of herbed butter seared scallops, feta and grilled asparagus pizza, or even a pasta al olio
Yields 6 gallons (2 cases) of finished wine in approximately 5 weeks
A dry wine with overtones of green melon leading to a crisp, clean finish. A bouquet of honey and herbs combined with aromas of clove, nutmeg, and butterscotch from the addition of oak, completes the experience of this perennially favorite white.
Ontario Pinot Grigios are characteristically lively with a lingering finish due to ample hours of sunshine throughout the seasons. The Pinot Grigio grape grown in Ontario is typically an early ripening grape (an evolution of the Pinot Noir grape), allowing for the longer development of delicate floral and honey-like characteristics.
Pinot Grigio grapes are often harvested earlier to retain the fresh acidity, giving the wine its fresher and lighter style. Ontario Pinot Grigios are usually described as “vibrant”, pale straw in color and dry. This grape varietal can be best enjoyed in warmer weather as a refreshing beverage.
The Italian Pinot Grigio we currently carry in our Cru International portfolio is a more complex, old-world style of Pinot Grigio, whereas our new Ontario grape offering is a more easy-going, light, and refreshing Pinot Grigio characteristic of a new world style Pinot Grigio.
Food Pairings
The delicate aromas and crisp acidity of this light and refreshing Pinot Grigio compliments the flavors of herbed butter seared scallops, feta and grilled asparagus pizza, or even a pasta al olio (olive oil, chili, garlic).

The Vinmetrica SC-50 MLF Analyzer gives accurate and reliable malic acid concentration levels in wine for detecting the end of malolactic fermentation (MLF). The new SC-55 Does the same job, but is now sold as a standalone unit that does not require any additional equipment.
The accuracy of the SC Series devices carries over into the functionality and reliability of the MLF Analyzer. With its easy to use vial insertion assembly, the MLF Analyzer gives you fool-proof readings down to 0.1g/L accuracy. Because it does not require any fancy, expensive lab equipment and eliminates the need for paper chromatography, the SC-55 MLF gives you professional readings while saving you time and money!
Includes everything needed to measure malic acid levels in your fermenting wines:
Vinmetrica SC-55 MLF Analyzer Unit
Malic Reagent Set
One vial of Biopressure Agent (enough for 5 tests)
5 Empty Reaction Vials with Septa Caps
One plastic measuring scoop
One “check” vial
10mL serological pipette
Plastic beaker
15mL conical tube
Two plastic pipettes
MLF Analyzer Manual
The Vinmetrica SC-55 MLF Analyzer measures the pressure given off by the same MLF reaction that you use in your wine. When malic acid is present, carbon dioxide (CO2) is evolved and detected as pressure.
Why buy the Vinmetrica MLF Analyzer?
Accurately assesses end of MLF at 0.4 g/L malic acid. Capable of detecting 0.1 g/L malic acid
Affordable: About $3 per test or less.
Easy, safe to Use: No toxic chemicals or noxious odors.
Fast: results in 15 – 30 minutes. Able to run multiple tests at once
Please Note: This is now a stand alone unit, and does not require any additional equipment.

Hot air is pushed downwards over the shrink capsule and results in more uniform shrinking, faster process, and consistent results. Traditional heat shrink guns with hot coils, but no internal fan for forced air, can cause the capsule to wrinkle as it shrinks. Chrome-plated body with insulated handle and three-position switch for off, cooling, and use. 1,000 Watt / 110V.
Use with the Enolmatic filter. These filter cartridges can be cleaned and re-sanitized for future useage. Wash by running PBW (CL25) followed by a hot then a cold rinse. Re-sanitize immediately after washing and then again just prior to the next use with SaniClean (CL27).

ProRestart and ProDessert contain yeast cells encapsulated within Alginate (natural polysaccharide extracted from seaweed) that are also acclimatized to alcohol and other harsh conditions. Unlike regular dry yeast, our encapsulated yeast are pre-conditioned to harsh conditions such as high sugars or high alcohol. They are a great choice for finishing stuck fermentations or fermenting dessert wines. To use, the beads are placed in a nylon bag and suspended in the ferment. The vast majority of the yeast stay trapped within the alginate beads. When they have completed their task, the bags are removed from the wine with few residual yeast cells from the culture being left behind. Though there may still be indigenous yeast present, use of the encapsulated yeast significantly reduces the amount of SO2, sorbate or tank chilling that are necessary to arrest fermentation. Sanitizable weights, such as stainless fittings or marbles, are placed in the bag to keep the bag submersed throughout the fermenation process. 83 Grams will treat 100L or 30 gallons of stuck wine.
Works quickly due to preconditioning and direct addition into a stuck or sluggish fermentation. This is much, much easier than traditional restart methods. Decreases spoilage risks due to its rapid fermentative activity and helps avoid excessive SO2 additions. Decreases risks related to color loss from oxidation. Preserves the flavor of the wine due to rapid sugar consumption without volatile acidity increase or other spoilage problems. Use 83g per 30 gallons. Culture can be transferred to next barrel after first barrel is finished. Comes with nylon mesh bag and full set of instructions.
