Best Buy! This vintage delivered to this Okanagan Valley icon its 12th Platinum just for Auxerrois, a remarkably long honor roll that includes the past two vintages. A grape that thrives in Alsace, it produces a wine with subtle notes of chamomile, a freshly mowed fairway and star thistle honey. The fluid is light-bodied with more chamomile, Bosc pear, a lick of caramel and a long, lemony finish. Suggested fare includes consommé, creamy dishes and scallops. Qualifying awards: Cascadia International (gold), All- Canadian Wine Competition (gold)
