Meyer Chardonnay 2018

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaUnlike their single vineyard chardys, this Okanagan Valley Chardonnay comes from two estate vineyards in Naramata Bench and Okanagan Falls, as well as Anarchist Mountain Vineyard in Osoyoos, and Cellarsbend Vineyard in Naramata, all practicing organic viticulture. This was whole cluster pressed and partially native fermented in older French oak and stainless. The wine rested for four months on fine lees, and went through full MLF. Creamy on the palate, with lemon, green apple, pear, brightened with a gentle lemony acidity. This is a welcoming, easy, smart chardy that will appeal to many, and perfectly priced as such at $20. Well done.Tasted: 06 October 2019Tasted by: Prices:
