TASTING NOTE: A well-poised, firm and fresh chardonnay from the northern Okanagan, retaining acids and fresh ripe citrus fruit despite the very warm vintage. Wood is a factor but not dominant, and flavours linger admirably. Nicely crafted, and nicely priced in the style category all in all. Score - 89 (John Szabo, MS, winealign.com, Nov. 29, 2017) |
