Mellow acidity and full-flavour pairs well with aromatic dishes, especially spicy Thai and Indian curries.
Other Notes
40 Knots Ziggy Siegerrebe 2016 ($22.90). Siegerrebe, an under-appreciated white variety, is a godsend for the cooler vineyards on Vancouver Island and the Fraser Valley. An early ripening aromatic grape, Siegerrebe invariably delivers exuberant tropical aromas and flavors. This wine is an example: aromas and flavors of spice, grapefruit, and lime with a crisp, dry finish. 90.

Nice light wine, with earthy overtones. Very enjoyable to sit back and sip on the patio.

We had a fantastic tasting at the winery today, tasting 6 wines, we liked all of them , but the Sieg was the favourite. Very knowledgeable and friendly staff. A lovely experience.

40 knots is one of our favorite wineries on Vancouver Island. We love pairing Sieg with seafood and lighter meals. It has a wonderful bouquet and goes down way to easy!

This year I really favoured the Sieg for its bold, refreshing taste. It paired well with grilled local oysters, fresh greens and roasted potatoes. A lovely white wine to have ready in the fridge for guests (if it lasts!).
