CUESTA SINGLE VINEYARD FAR EAST, MAN! CRU NIAGARA CHARDONNAY 2023 VQA Twenty Mile Bench, Niagara Escarpment
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note Producer BACHELDER
This batch of 118 cases was bottled on May 1, 2025 (lot number L2025-05-01 on the lower part of the glass bottle). Bright medium-light straw colour. Intense, complex, fairly toasty, ripe, lemon-apple meringue with lots of attractive schisty-mineral notes. Dry, medium to medium-full bodied, well-textured, intense, complex, minerally, expansive and yet still pointed, ripe lemon curd flavours with a lingering, surprisingly rich, harmonious finish. A classic Burgundian style, it is showing well now and has improved immensely from the initial bottling shock of 15-months-ago. It has 13% alcohol and under 2 g/L residual sugar. CSPC 52011
