Rathjen Cellars 2018 P + G Pinot Noir–Gamay
$37.99
Wild cherry, raspberry, plum and pink peppercorn appear in a light, juicy profile with fresh acidity and salinity. Pinot Noir and Gamay from Vancouver Island make up the blend in equal proportions. The fruit received a forty-eight-hour cold soak, followed by native fermentation in open-top bins and one week on skins. Each variety spent one year in neutral French barrels before blending, then another year in barrel. Bottling was unfined and unfiltered.

About Rathjen Cellars
Mike Rathjen opened Rathjen Cellars on the Saanich Peninsula in 2016 after making wine in a Victoria basement known as the Wine Bunker. He worked exclusively with Vancouver Island fruit, restoring or leasing local vineyard sites. His winemaking took a low-intervention approach. The small range included still and sparkling wines as well as cider.
For Imperative Dry Vermouth, Rathjen supplied the wine base and Ampersand Distilling contributed its botanical expertise. Rathjen Cellars closed permanently in summer 2023.
