JoieFarm Reserve Chardonnay 2009

Okanagan Falls, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaFloral, citrus, buttery, baked pear, honey, perfumed aromas. The entry is round if somewhat flat on the palate with a bit of sweetness and fresh acidity. Citrus rind, honey, butter, lees, baked apple, ginger flavours. All the parts are present but it lacks the concentration that would take it to the next level. It finishes with a bit of bitterness and heat. Drink now with roasted chicken.
