2022 Chardonnay, Niagara

An award-winning 2022 Estate Chardonnay from Westcott Vineyards is an extraordinary expression of resilience and craftsmanship. Despite the challenges of the 2022 vintage, including winter cold snaps and vine damage, this Chardonnay has emerged with remarkable precision, energy, and depth.

Barrel fermented with wild yeast and natural malolactic fermentation, this Chardonnay wine is defined by its sharp, bright acidity and structured minerality. The palate presents a linear and focused profile, offering delicate hints of citrus zest, crisp green apple, and subtle toasty undertones. This vintage showcases pure, unfiltered elegance with a refined, hyper-real clarity.

An excellent match for Grilled halibut or seabass, complementing the wine’s bright structure an aged gouda or nutty alpine cheeses, balancing its sharpness.
