Black Hills Chardonnay 2019
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaRipening chardonnay isn’t a problem in BC. It is getting the acidity and freshness to match the fruit, and at 13 percent, winemaker Ross Wise is hitting the sweet spot with this label. Using only the French oak, the wine shows a mix of citrus, baked red apples, and tropical fruit undertones. A cross between Burgundy and California is the best way to look at this wine that should fly off the shelves this summer. Halibut steaks, Dungeness crab, lobster, and creamy risottos are all possibilities.Tasted: 19 March 2021Tasted by: Prices:| BC | $29.90 | 750ml | winery direct and private wine shops |
