A spicy Chard that has lots of character & quality for under $15
Description: Medium gold in colour with a medium to medium+ nose. This wine features light toasted oak, lemon, MacIntosh apples, peach, clementine, pineapple, dill, ginger, butterscotch, oak spice, vanilla, nutmeg and cinnamon. Medium+ body with good acidity and a fairly long length.
Negatives: None
Interesting Note: I really like Inniskillin’s Niagara Peninsula Chard, same year, reviewed by me and this one takes it by a nose.
Drink now or in the next 3 years on its own or pair it with Roasted Chicken with Creamy Dill Sauce.
Tasted: 6 January 2016
