Closson Chase Vineyards
2022 Churchside Chardonnay
VQA Prince Edward County
Fresh, ripe white tree fruits, apples and pears, jump from the glass, followed by floral notes, candied citrus peel, and lemon curd. Flinty limestone emerges as you swirl. The palate is dense, showing rich fruit and spice with excellent acidity and balance. The finish is complex, revealing layers of fruit, spice, and barrel tones, all framed by classic County elegance. Bright acidity carries through to a long, persistent finish.
Sourced from our Churchside Vineyard. Whole cluster pressed, then barrel fermented and aged in French oak for 16 months. Full malolactic fermentation. Certified vegan by VegeCert and certified sustainable by Sustainable Winegrowing Ontario.
Food Pairings: A classic lobster roll, Arctic char with lemon parsley butter sauce, roasted butternut squash risotto, or baked Brie topped with hazelnuts and honey.
