Painted Rock Chardonnay 2012

Skaha Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaToasted popcorn, butter and nutty, vanilla, baked apple, peach skin aromas. Dry, fresh, elegant, slightly tart palate with more butter, nutty, vanilla, grapefruit rind, apple skin, pear and popcorn flavours. Elegant and fresh but with a touch of bitter rind character. Solid but needs a bit of polish. Give it another six months to fatten up or serve it with fresh halibut.Tasted: 19 February 2014Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
