Hidden Bench, Felseck Vineyard Chardonnay, Beamsville Bench, Ontario - Niagara Peninsula, Canada 2018 Hidden Bench, Felseck Vineyard Chardonnay, Beamsville Bench, Ontario - Niagara Peninsula, Canada 2018

This finely crafted wine from Beamsville Bench is unquestionably the fruitiest of our five Chardonnays -- but this is fruit Niagara-style, so don’t look for anything opulent or flamboyant. Think, instead, of the scent of cool northern orchards when the apples and pears begin to fall and lie in the grass and you crush rosehips and hawthorne berries underfoot -- and you’ll be there. On the palate, that seam of cool-fruited inspiration continues unabated in what is not only a complex Chardonnay but also a satisfying and utterly convincing one, as well as being a kind of benchmark for the Ontario style.
