Norman Hardie
Ontario County Unfiltered Chardonnay
Ontario, Canada
The 2012 - still just a baby -- last taste is on the third night after opening. Rich, caramel/resin under fresh yellow apple, lemon, with stones and minerals on the lingering finish. Still vibrant after all that time open. Continues to amaze and gratify.

2013. Lots of oak, but balanced with acid. Like a baby Tissot. Great with rich cream sauces.

Has a flavour like roasted popcorn with butter. Totally distinctive and just delicious. At the Norman Hardie Winemaker's Dinner.

Chalky citrus and green apple; rich finish. Pairs well with cumin-dusted roasted cauliflower.
