Half of the wine is aged in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks with the other half up to eight months with regular batonnage in new French oak barrels. Bright on the nose with ripe apple, vanilla, toffee, lemon pudding and apple pie spice flavours toasty and creamy on the palate.

The Tragically Hip Ahead By A Century 2020 Chardonnay is produced from grapes sourced from several vineyards in Niagara wine region. The wine was aged in French oak (90% new) and American oak (10%) barrels. Lush on the palate with buttered toast, ripe apple, lemon curd, vanilla cream finishing long on the palate. Pour with a traditional roast chicken dinner. - Community Wine Reviews

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.
