Golden Mile Bench, Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaYou can tell by the colour what kind of chardonnay this horse will be: rich. Caramel, baked pear, lemon butter is infiltrated by a bitter smoked crab apple note, sitting atop the custardy base. The residual sugar is elevated, and the acidity low: old school Cali, from look and feel, to 9 months in barrel on lees, 20% new oak.Tasted: 14 December 2019Tasted by: Prices:

Golden Mile Bench, Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaDark Horse is a trip back in time to an old-style, over-the-top, oak-laden chardonnay with a creamy caramel tropical fruit nose, coconut, and toasted hazelnuts. The attack is full-bodied, warm and rich, with more penetrating buttery, honey pineapple vanilla flavours and a strong smoky, toasted oak character in the finish. It is aged nine months in oak, 20 percent new, before going to bottle. Try this with grilled lobster or crab.Tasted: 07 November 2019Tasted by: Prices:
