Barr Estate Winery Inc.
Barr Estate Winery is an artisan winery, focusing on quality. Currently we make two very fine wines, The Other Red™ (raspberry) and The Barb™ (rhubarb). We hand pick the raspberries only when they are fully ripe, almost purple. This creates a full flavour, medium bodied wine with a nice balance of acidity. It is a refreshing, off dry wine with complex aromas and ripe summer fruit flavours and is best served cool. Pairings include duck breast, roast pork, mango and, of course, chocolate. For The Barb™, we use only red rhubarb which creates a beautiful pale coral wine. This wine has citrus, honey nectar, flowers and much more. It is a medium bodied wine that has a good balance of acidity and a long finish. There is a lot going on with this off dry wine and it is best served chilled. Pairings include cold meats, Thai noodles, spicy foods and fish. Both wines also taste great on their own. At Barr Estate Winery we believe in utilizing cool fermentation techniques. This helps retain volatiles and esters which translates into improved bouquet and fruit characteristics. The best way to enjoy our wines is with no preconceptions. Give the wines an opportunity to entice your senses.
