From the Niagara Escarpment, Niagara Peninsula wine region in Ontario, Bachelder Les Villages Bench 2022 Chardonnay is gorgeous. So elegant and refined, it is as enticing on the nose as it is on the palate with dried fine herbs, flinty mineral, fresh pear, apple and lemon zest aromas and flavours creamy and lingering with a briny mineral finish. So precise and so fine. Chill and enjoy it through 2028 with roast pheasant or Cornish game hens.

Chardonnay food pairings: roast chicken, pork tenderloin en croute, veal Porterhouse.
