Mission Hill S.L.C. Chardonnay 2010

Osoyoos, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaLight honey, baked pear, vanilla, spicy, clove, apricot nose with floral, red apple and mango aromas. The attack is fresh and crisp with citrus, apple, honey, floral, buttery, spicy lees and vanilla flavours with a touch of orange and guava on the finish. A bit short on the mid-palate but with fine freshness and finesse. Give it a year or two to develop. The SLC is 35 percent aged in French oak for 8 months.Tasted: 02 July 2012Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
