Ken's Wine Rating: Very Good (89)

Review date: March 11, 2009

Wine Review: This light yellow colored wine opens with a light honey like bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, nicely balanced, and slightly creamy with light oak infused butter flavors. The finish is dry and lingers slightly. We felt this wine would pair well with chicken alfredo. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: "The Canoe Ridge Estate Chardonnay is inherently vibrant,refined, and elegant and we like to enhance that style in the cellar. This Chardonnay delivers fresh apple, pear and spice aromas and flavors. The finish is elegant and refined with light spice notes, which are a result of the restrained French oak treatment."

What did the grape say when the elephant stepped on it? It didn't say anything. It just let out a little whine.
