Bartier Bros. Chardonnay 2023
Oliver, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaCerqueira Vineyard sits on the Black Sage Terrace in Oliver and is the source of this Chardonnay. Its sandy loam topsoil on mainly granite glacial till contains high amounts of calcium sulphate precipitates that add energy and minerality to this tightly strung, modern chardonnay. The wine sees no oak and is aged for only four months in stainless steel. Its creamy textures mitigate the crunchy pear, green apple, and saline lemon finish on what is a marvellous food wine. Shellfish, whitefish, chicken salads, and the like all work here.Tasted: 01 June 2024Tasted by: Prices:| BC | $24.99 | 750ml | winery online/direct, select private retailers, restaurants |
