2020 "White Cap" Estate Riesling | 1.5L Magnum
HST HOLIDAY. Wines are now tax free.
Score: 95
"Deep gold colour; floral, spicy, lychee and grapefruit nose; medium-bodied, off dry; great tension between honeyed sweetness and lime and grapefruit flavours. Amazing length."
~ Tony Aspler, tonyaspler.com
2019 "White Cap" Estate Riesling | 1.5L Magnum
HST HOLIDAY. Wines are now tax free.
Wines in Niagara’s “Most Thrilling White Wine of 2023”
Score: 95
"The newbie Dobbin Estate, under the guidance and care of winemaker Peter Gamble and viticulturist Ann Sperling … has set its sights on Riesling as one of its superstar varieties ... It’s made with purpose, utilizing multi picks, a selection of botrytis-affected grapes and a combination of vessels for fermentation and aging. It truly is a marvel, a style that will appeal to serious Riesling lovers and, hopefully, inspire a new generation of winemakers to get Riesling the recognition it so richly deserves."
~ Rick VanSickle, winesinniagara.com
Designed to improve with age until 2029 and may be cellared until 2039.
2020 "Black Cap" Riesling | 1.5L Magnum
HST HOLIDAY. Wines are now tax free.
Score: 95
"Perfumed notes of sweet nectar and lemons are reflected on the palate with beguiling flavours of apricots and honey. Delicate with excellent concentration and persistent finish. Focused winemaking builds texture and balances generous fruit flavours with freshness—another wonderful example from this producer."
~ Magdalena Kaiser, Decanter
2019 "Black Cap" Riesling | 1.5L Magnum
HST HOLIDAY. Wines are now tax free.
Score: 94
"This complex and ripe expression of riesling comes from an exciting new producer in Niagara. Grapes from the vineyard west of St. Catharines were harvested over a month-long period to craft a wine with intriguing complexity and satisfying structure and texture. An enticing flavour suggests grapefruit, green apple and honey with some kerosene/petrol aromas that add to the complex character."
~ Christopher Waters, Globe & Mail
Designed to improve with age until 2027 and may be cellared until 2034.
2020 Estate Chardonnay | 1.5L Magnum
HST HOLIDAY. Wines are now tax free.
Score: 94
"This is a unique offering from Dobbin that is taken from one barrel of the estate’s Charlene Vineyard. It was wild fermented and aged on its lees in second fill French oak for 18 months. The nose is rich, elegant and concentrated with lovely perfume, ripe pear, baked apple, saline/chalky minerality, lemon tart, creamy/toasty notes and spice box. It has an elegant creamy texture on the palate with concentrated stone fruits, bergamot, stony minerality, toasted almonds, spice, fresh saline and finesse through a lifted and long finish. Contemplative Chardonnay that will impress further with another 5 to 7 years in the cellar."
~ Rick VanSickle, winesinniagara.com
Cellaring potential of 10+ years.
2019 Estate Chardonnay | 1.5L Magnum
Only 8 available!
HST HOLIDAY. Wines are now tax free.
This is a unique offering from Dobbin that is taken from one barrel of the estate’s Charlene Vineyard.
“This magnum is an exciting indication of where we are going and what possibilities lie in the terroir of our special location,” the team says in its bottle notes.
“These are extremely limited (135 magnums), but we wanted to share a few as it sincerely has us anticipating what we will get out of our estate plantings.”
"It shows a light golden colour in the glass and has a rich and concentrated nose of ripe pear, wildflowers, stony minerality, yellow apples, lemon zest and integrated spice notes. This is such a deep and concentrated Chardonnay on the palate with swirling chalky/flinty minerality, stone fruits, zesty citrus notes, toasted almonds and spice with a long, finessed and echoing finish. A treat of a Chardonnay that will improve for 5+ years in the cellar."
