Poplar Grove Chardonnay 2015

Naramata Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaAnother super ripe chardonnay from 2015, with a whack of candied apple, pear and banana fruit aromas and flavours. The textures are soft and round with a bit of an un-synchronised vanilla and lees character that seems out of place with sweetness. Ready to drink but chill this down and serve it with some smoked chicken. I miss the leaner, drier style but I’m sure a lot of consumers will like this riper version.Tasted: 25 August 2016Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
