Medium gold colour. Lemon, honey and citrus notes provide for a very enticing aroma. The palate has medium/full body and adds to the sense of power that wine's intense flavours give. Flavours of green apple are balanced with a slight caramel note. Perfectly balanced, the wines intense flavours and powerful body manage to retain just the right symmetry and never seem heavy. Already complex, this is still on its way up and will likely deliver pleasure for another 3-5 years, based upon older vintages of this wine that we have had. www.advinetures.ca

(Woodward Canyon Chardonnay Washington State) Draws you into the glass with pear, candy corn, apple, spicy barrel notes, and a light nuttiness. The palate is medium bodied with vibrant fruit flavors, a lot of texture and depth, a lick of lemony acidity and a drawn out finish. Almost criminal to drink without pairing with crab cakes. 100% Chardonnay. Woodward Canyon Estate (71%) and Celilo vineyards. Aged in French Burgundy barrels (approximately 20% new). 14.1% alcohol. 873 cases produced.

Nice chard from Woodward Canyon, feels like it has lost just a bit since our last bottle. Definitely time to drink up.

Lots of flavor jumps out of this wine including steel, lemon and custard. Mildly warm finish. A great wine from fine people.
