  Un excellent Chardonnay qui montre ici qu’il n’a pas peur de passer des années en cave, belle couleur dorée nez chaleureux d’agrumes mures et sucrés, boisé raffiné entièrement intégré, légèrement beurré et bien minéral. Il me semble un brin sucré sur la fondue au fromage, mais je me raviserai là-dessus le lendemain il se montre beaucoup plus équilibré. La singularité de PEC est mise de l’avant dans ce vin qui en est un des meilleurs exemples.

  Tasted as part of all Ontario wine tasting of four Chardonnays and four Pinot Noirs. Bright mid yellow with almonds, green apple, lime and pronounced mineral notes. Just a touch of match stick smell. Balanced, intense palate with acidity balancing the sweet fruit and moderately long finish. Drinking well now and no sense of eminent decline.

  A nice surprise, and I agree with previous notes - reductive hints, slightly acrid finish, but well rounded mid-palate and limited oak. Not your usual new world chardonnay.

  Deep golden colour - I attribute this partly to ageing. Superbly complex and enticing nose with richly exotic aromas of mango, banana and melon. Lean, graceful, searing, truly impressive and serious. Very exciting that you can get wine as thoroughly convincing as this from Canada.

  Apporté par un ami. Ordinaire et trop beurré, depuis qu`il défrait les manchettes, il ne fait plus partie de nos achats, on passe.
