White Wine

Stratus Chardonnay 2024, Niagara ON The Lake, Ontario V.Q.A., Canada: Stratus Chardonnay 2024 layers lemon-oil and wet-stone minerality with hazelnut and gingersnap, leading to ripe pear and baked-apple richness balanced by bright acidity—serve with lobster or creamy pasta, or cellar for a few years and reap the rewards of boutique winery craftsmanship from Niagara-on-the-Lake. Chardonnay food pairings: lemon-herbed roast chicken and cauliflower with capers and fresh parsley.
