Wine pick: Canada Day select!

 
Filed under: Natalie MacLean Wine Picks — Tags: , Jenn Gruden, web editor @ 9:45 am

What better way to celebrate Canada Day than with one of our best chardonnays?

Flat Rock Unplugged Chardonnay, Niagara, Ontario

This chardonnay is refreshing not only because it’s unoaked (thus “unplugged”), but also because it was made in a cool climate. Our growing season and temperatures create spectacular chardonnays that are packed with flavour, but not heavy on the alcohol, oak and tannin. This particular chardonnay has lovely aromas of peach, Asian pear and gala apple. So as the barbecue sizzles, keep your cool with this wine.

Price: $16.95
Score: 88/100
Drink: 2012-2015
Product No: 68015
