Score: 93 "This Chardonnay is sourced from three organic sites, including some estate fruit, all on the Twenty Mile Bench. It was hand harvested over two picks, wild fermented and wild malo, with 18 months on its lees in neutral French oak. It has a generous/opulent nose of baked pear, yellow apples, floral accents, some savoury/chalky/saline notes, and lemon curd, subtle spice, with persistence and complexity. The warm, near-perfect 2020 vintage offers elegance and a fuller bodied Chardonnay than the debut vintage with notes of quince, ripe apple and pear, stony minerality, some weight, lemon tart, a creamy texture with a lasting and finessed finish. Drink until 2030. Only 190 cases made." ~ Rick VanSickle, winesinniagara.com
