Description
Food Pairings
This Chardonnay has enough weight and character to stand up to a variety of rich, buttery or creamy dishes. Pair with Lobster, Halibut or Scallops as well as pasta dishes with a white-creamy sauce. Alternatively, it would pair well with Truffle risotto or Butternut squash soup. It also pairs well with Pork Tenderloin, Grilled Chicken and Turkey.
Winemaking Notes
Sourced from an ‘old vines’ block of Chardonnay growing in the cool Lincoln Lakeshore sub-appellation, directly on the south shore of Lake Ontario. Harvested the first week in October, fermented in neutral and second-fill barrels on light solids with partial ML conversion. Aged for 8 months on lees with regular stirring. Bottled late summer 2025 and aged in bottle for nine months before release. Only 70 cases.
