This wine is clean and crisp with notes of papaya, mango, guava and apricot balanced against a subtle minerality.
Auxerrois (pronounced Awk – Sair – Wah) is a consistent producer and ripens early, yet it retains its fruit‐forward profile.
This varietal has become practically tantamount to Bel Lago. Our founder, Charlie Edson first came across Auxerrois, which is closely related to Chardonnay, on a trip to the Alsace region in France. Knowing it would be uniquely suited to thrive on the Leelanau Peninsula, we planted our first vines in 1987 and became the first in Michigan and one of the first in the country to do so.
This wine was fermented in large stainless‐steel tanks at a low temperature in order to retain freshness, creating a fruit
forward wine.
Simply seasoned rainbow trout or cheeses such as chèvre, feta, havarti and ricotta
