Malivoire 2021 Melon (Ontario Wine)

It's one of those little known grapes, but this one has quite the following : 
 
Malivoire 2021 Melon
 
 
 
--- THE WRITTEN REVIEW ---
 
Malivoire has been making, and selling out of, Melon for over 20 years; and now to alleviate those demands for more, they've planted more Melon de Bourgogne. This is 64% estate fruit and 36% from winemaker's Shiraz Mottiar's eponymously named vineyard. The aromas are a real winner and they match the palate: melon (perfect for this wine), pear, mineral-floral with fresh acidity that allows the wine to linger with a stony finish. Another winner Melon, and having just come back from the Loire, I can tell you this bottle is truly on-point.  (****)
