Wine Review: This pale straw colored Chardonnay opens with Bosc pear and green apple bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied and slightly acidic. The flavor profile is green apple with notes of minerality and lime. I also detected a little clementine and white pepper towards the end. The finish is dry and its acidity and flavors linger for a little while. This Chard would pair best with pasta carbonara. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: A delicate pale gold in color, this cool climate chardonnay boasts fresh aromas of pomelo, baked pear galette and chamomile flower. The wine is juicy and pure on the palate with flavors of apricots, lime chiffon pie and white tea. The texture is round and vibrant with a long, polished finish.
