Hidden Bench Estate Chardonnay Beamsville Bench 2014

Beamsville Bench, Niagara Peninsula, Ontario, CanadaBeamsville Bench is one of the 10 sub appellations of Niagara Peninsula, and one of 14 wineries based there. The area is characterized by sloping bench lands and limestone enriched soils which imbue wines, like this, with fresh minerality. Organically farmed, native fermented and whole bunch pressed, this spends time in French barrels. Creamy, yet streamlined on the palate, with green apple, herbs, lemon and large flake salts, bedded with fresh filberts and finishing with stony citrus.Tasted: 27 February 2018Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
