Henry of Pelham Estate Chardonnay 2020

Niagara Peninsula, Ontario, CanadaTheir estate Short Hills Bench site was settled by the Speck ancestors in the 18th century, and was planted in three vineyards, beginning in 1988, and across a variety of clones. It was barrel fermented in 1/3 new oak (Europe and American), where it remained for 8-10 months. Fragrant white florals, cold cream, ripe pear flood an expansive, creamy palate, with tight lemon lacing holding in the sides through a spiced finish. A posher style, ready for richer dishes now.Tasted: 05 January 2023Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
