One of the newest wineries in Niagara-on-the-Lake is located just down the road from Chateau des Charmes, just in case you are looking to visit. This Chardonnay comes from their Rowan Vineyard and spends 10 months in barrel: 1 fermenting and 9 ageing. The result is a buttered melon rind nose; while the palate proves to be more than the nose lets on. Vanilla and buttery notes combine with caramel apple and nice acidity. Price: $24.00 – Rating: ****
