2022 Chardonnay

This 2022 Chardonnay is very much in line with the amazing 2015 and 2017 vintages. Beautiful bright citrus notes with great minerality on the pallet and a well-balanced, long finish. This is for those who are looking for Burgundian style Chardonnay as opposed to big, over-oaked California New-World Chardonnays. For those who are looking for Burgundy but can’t stomach the price, this is a magnificent Chardonnay that they will surely enjoy.

A blend of three of the most mineral-driven Chardonnay sites on the Beamsville Bench in Niagara. 2022 was almost the perfect summer for Chardonnay – long and cool, followed by a cool, dry fall. Lovely 12.6% alcohol. Aged for 18 months (two winters) in large format French oak barrels. Bottled without filtration and very low sulphurs.
