Family owned and operated, Domaine de Grand Pré winery was built on love and passion for Nova Scotia and exceptional wine and food. Hanspeter Stutz, owner and father, is a visionary who first took a leap of faith in 1994, trusting that something special could be established to grow the Nova Scotia wine industry. He wanted to create a world-class destination while building a future for his family. Hanspeter’s children and their partners manage the vineyards, the winery, the restaurant Le Caveau, and an inn that opened in 2022. Jurg Stutz is the winemaker at the estate and crafts polished and elegant wines year after year. The Domaine is known for its crisp and clean flavour profile and they pride themselves in using only 100 per cent Nova Scotian grown grapes.
Tasting Notes
Expressive and vibrant, the wine is bursting with ripe fruit notes of red plum and cherry with underlying forest floor. Well concentrated fruit with a slight savory note that carries onto the finish. The palate texture is pleasantly creamy with a light mousse making for an easy drinking sparkling red that would pair wondefully with rich dishes featuring pork belly or duck, smoked meats, earthy roasted root vegetables or simply a charcuterie and cheese plate with some pickled accoutrements.
Method
A fun sparkling red wine crafted from estate-grown Marquette and L’Acadie Blanc grapes; this special release celebrates Domaine de Grand Pré’s 25th anniversary.
