About this winery

Canada’s fruit basket – one of the southernmost parts of Canada - an idyllic little peninsula with a unique microclimate due to the ocean-like Great lakes that surround it. Dolomitic Limestone abounds here - interspersed with clay - giving the wines intense perfume; a rich mouthfeel and a defining iron grip that speaks of the Escarpment where the grapes are grown – the same Escarpment from whence tumble the world-famous ‘Niagara Falls.’

Tasting notes

This Chardonnay generally presents stone fruit aromas such as peach and apricot, with hints of citrus and green apple. Aging in oak brings subtle hints of vanilla and sweet spices, while balancing freshness and roundness.
