Nk'Mip Cellars Qwam Qwmt Chardonnay 2004
Osoyoos, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaWinemaker Randy Picton has conquered the oak barrel in 2004 and given us a delicious spicy, cinnamon, leesy, baked apple chardonnay nose with nutty, floral, orange notes. Dry, elegant, slightly fat entry with nutty lees, mineral, vanilla, honey, waxy, spicy, green apple skin flavours. The finish is warm but with plenty of pear and citrus and a streak of buttered popcorn. Ready to go but with fine sophistication. Try with grilled trout and almonds meunière.Tasted: 15 April 2006Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $24.99 | 750ml | VQA stores / private wine shops |
