Solvero Chardonnay 2022
Garnet Valley, Summerland Bench, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaThe Solvero Chardonnay is farmed at close to 600m elevation, making it one of the highest vineyards in the province. It is whole cluster pressed and barrel fermented in 20% new French oak, and it gets daily lees stirring during fermentation before a 12 month sleep in barriques. There is a Burgundian richness here in a wine that mixes pears, yellow apples, hazelnut, toast, and just a hint of vanilla. Stylish and young, you can think this now or wait another year or two to allow it to develop fully. Yet another promising new label from Summerland.Tasted: 06 July 2024Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:| BC | $30.00 | 750ml | winery online/direct, select private retailers |
