Chronos Sémillon 2020

Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaFrom Oliver's Diamondback Vineyard, this sém was whole bunch pressed and fermented in 54% stainless with no MLF, 46% French oak (20% new), with full MLF. After some time on the lees, the parts were blended and bottled, without fining. This youthful sémillon is in an awkward state, with crab apple, green hedge, yellow apple, crunchy pear, wood spice, ale, and lees all jockeying for position. For now, mitigate with butternut squash soup, or lay down for a year and try again.Tasted: 08 December 2021Tasted by: Prices:
