Henry of Pelham Chardonnay VQA

This is a classy, restrained chardonnay with fine, tight complexity and nuance. Look for pear, nutmeg, vanilla and peat smoke, all nicely entwined if not hugely generous. It’s medium weight, firm yet almost delicate, with some mouthwatering minerality on the finish. Very good length. Good value, and state of the art Ontario chardonnay at a very fair price. Best to 2015. (David Lawrason,winealign.com,March 2012)
