Tasting note

I've really gotta stop saying I don't like Chardonnay - having just re-organized my wine cellar over the weekend I found that I have quite a bit of the stuff in there ... it can't all be for guests now can it? Plus I keep coming across wines like this one from Lailey; an all estate fruit, old vines number aged 10 months in oak (but none new). A nose loaded with butter and peach blossoms followed on the palate with mac apple, vanilla, spice and great acidity for balance and don't forget the fresh clean finish that doesn't weigh you down. With Chardonnay like this being made here in Ontario I'm having a real problem keeping my ABC status. Score - 4+ Stars (out of 5). (Michael Pinkus, ontariowinereview.com, Oct. 16, 2013)
