A voluptuous, full-bodied PEC Chardonnay and the flagship wine from this much-respected producer. Aromas of creme brulee, freshly baked bread and golden apple. Pair with lobster in melted butter.

Reviews and Ratings

Jennifer Havers - WSET Level 3 rated this wine as 94/100 with the following review:

Gorgeous! This wine shows beautiful balance and outstanding flavours. Aromas include lemon curd, honey, melon, and warm baking spice, along with a hint of floral. Full bodied on the palate, smooth and creamy with a hint of crisp minerality, along with ripe, juicy fruit and medium+ acidity. Very balanced, already 3 years old and tasting so youthful, this will age for 5-8 years or more, easily. Enjoy with a special Sunday roasted chicken or holiday turkey dinner.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
