Liquidity Chardonnay 2017
Okanagan Falls, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe 2017 Estate Chardy is clone 76, planted in 1994 and 2009, whole cluster pressed and barrel fermented in French oak (14%) new. After partial MLF, the wine was aged on lees with regular batonnage for 9 months before blending and bottling. Medium-bodied and fruit orchard sweet, with yellow apples, baked pears, lush peach, and toasty spices on a creamy, custardy palate. There's not a huge amount of acidity here, and there is a blip of RS, making this very friendly and accessible now.Tasted: 05 August 2019Tasted by: Prices:BC | $29.00 | 750ml | winery direct; private wine shops |
