Tightrope Winery Chardonnay 2018

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaFrom Naramata's Four Shadows Vineyard, this fuller, plumper chardonnay was barrel fermented in both French wood and stainless over 2 weeks, underwent 1/3 MLF, and spent 7 months in French oak on lees. Lemon curd rules, along with apple custard, vanilla, and baked pear. Certainly Cali-leaning, but with that hallmark Okanagan freshness, this is a worthy match for crab cakes or butter chicken.Tasted: 12 October 2020Tasted by: Prices:
