Nova 7 Pack, back vintages

Regular price $114.95
/

Back vintages! We’ve pulled a bit of our 2017 and 2018 vintages from our library to put together for you a special offering, focused on all things Nova 7. This limited pack includes: 2 x 2018 Nova 7, 2 x 2017 Nova 7, 2 x Nova 7 Stemless Glasses, 1 x Nova 7 Pin

In the glass, a light salmon colour with a magenta hue. On the nose, hints of ripe peaches, jasmine and lychee nectar abound. The palate immediately captivates with an energetic attack, and bright notes of tart cherries and mango purée. An enticing combination of aromatic intensity and weightlessness leads to an elegant finish with suggestions of starfruit and sea minerals.

In the glass, pale coral pink colour with a bright peach hue. On the nose, successions of floral notes - rose petals and water lilies - are interlaced with tropical hints of fresh papayas and litchis. On the palate, suggestions of ripe mango and fresh apricots are brightened by crisp and energetic undertones, revealing the trademark electricity unique to our cool climate. An invigorating vintage of Nova 7, whose lush fragrant appeal is equalled only by its inimitable freshness.

FURTHER NOTES

More than ten years ago, a winemaking experiment pioneered a new wine category to celebrate Nova Scotia’s unique maritime terroir – Nova 7.

The name ‘Nova 7’ encompasses so much of what has made this wine “an East Coast trailblazer." ‘Nova’ pays homage to the winemakers’ commitment to a wine that could only be made in the Province of Nova Scotia and for the Latin word "new", to reflect the daring notion that we would create something completely original.

The ‘7’ is in tribute to 2007, the year of the first commercial vintage, a time when no one at Benjamin Bridge could have predicted the wine’s future success.

The 2019 vintage was defined by a late start to the growing season and Hurricane Dorian in September, which disrupted the grape’s ripening process at the most critical stage. As a result, the fruit had significantly less sugar at harvest than in other years.

Nonetheless, we stayed true to our natural practices and low-intervention winemaking principles by adding no sugars at any stage in the crafting of Nova 7. And, it is as if the forces of nature knew best of all, as the resulting wine is aligned with our preference for balance and freshness. 

We relied upon wild fermentations and no sulphites were added at any stage. While these natural practices come with great risk, the possible reward of exceptional quality is too attractive to pass up. 

While our ethos is rooted in natural practices and sustainability, with Nova 7 we want to demonstrate that, measured on a scale of deliciousness alone, non-interventionist winemaking can outperform conventional techniques.
