Lightly oaked, lemon and buttery notes. Nice fine from the Okanagan. Paired well with cheese fondue.

Amazed by this Chardonnay from the okanagan valley. Tons of minerality and beautifully balanced oak. Soft lemon and apple. Reminds me of Donum or Hanzell.

Higher acidity, lower soft tannins. Meaty notes but still bright red fruits (strawberry).

Crisp, tasty Chardonnay. Mellon, 🍋 earthiness. The oak gives a lot of character. $30 is probably a fair price for it. Might have another bottle at Thanksgiving.

Sound chardonnay. Nice crisp acidity. Good colour. Good texture with reasonable persistance.

The oak in this wine really brings out the flavour. The nose gives, vanilla, and semi-sweet toffee notes. In the mouth is a beautiful slow progression from a subdued buttery texture, into crisp green Apple and hints of apricot, with a toasted almond and vanilla finish. Very enjoyable.

Ripe fruit, richness, oak notes. New world blockbuster.
