Rosewood Estates ‘Reserve – Natural Fermentation’ Chardonnay 2009
VQA Beamsville Bench $28.20 14.0% alcohol
There are sweet vanilla, butterscotch and pear aromas galore in this vibrant refreshing Chardonnay. Palate-bathing flavours of green apple, ripe yellow peach and toasty oak persist through the lengthy fruit-filled finish. It’s medium-full bodied and nicely textured needing only another year in bottle to strut its stuff—it’ll knit together beautifully allowing the oak to melt into the background. Order by the case of 6 or 12 for daily home or office delivery from Rosewood 1.866.633.3248. (Vic Harradine)
