GRAPE
chardonnay
Green tinged and straw coloured with floral, citrus (clementine and lemon)
stone fruit, yellow apple and ripe pear on the nose. The palate is medium bodied, flinty and packed with fresh acidity, lemon zest and light toast. Balanced, structured and a layered, creamy texture give way to a lingering, spicy finish.
Chardonnay is grown in many regions around the world due to its versatility in style andadaptability to various climates, but its true character can only shine in the right terroir. The Beamsville Bench sub-appellation is one of those, with the soils a mix of gravel, sand, silt, and clay layered in dolomitic limestone, the result of continuous erosion of the Niagara Escarpment and years of glacial activity. In the cool climate of the Bench, Chardonnay`s potential for greatness shows, resulting in elegant wines with fresh natural acidity and
intense aromatic expression.
