The Hatch Dynasty White 2013
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaLots going on here, one small part of which is the idiosyncratic label and squat bottle. Chardonnay, viognier and pinot gris are barrel fermented separately, then blended, and put in stainless steel before being left on the lees, without stirring, for sixteen months. The result is a full bodied, creamy white, one with oak upfront before a garden of heady florals, fleshy peach and jasmine spicing, finishing with generous lashes of vanilla. The elements are all here, but have not knit together. Drink this punchy white with something equally powerful and rich like crab chowder.Tasted: 13 January 2016Tasted by: Prices:| BC | $29.99 | 750ml | winery direct |
