Mission Hill Reserve Chardonnay 2006

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaDarkish yellow orange for such a young wine. Peach, butter, pineapple, vanilla, mango, pear and baked apple aromas. Round, fresh, elegant and crisp with some fatness on the palate. Buttery, tangerine, pineapple, vanilla, spicy lees, grapefruit rind flavours with some green apple skin and ginger spice on the slightly bitter finish. Good effort if a bit warm but fresh.Tasted: 14 November 2008Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
