Pearl Morissette Chardonnay 'Fougue' Creek Shores VQA 2021

Classic French chardonnay from Ontario! François Morissette, having trained with some of the great winemakers of Burgundy, has turned his attention to the vineyards of the Niagara region. His approach involves minimal intervention in the winery and low additions of sulfur. This exquisite chardonnay begins with subtle sea salt and preserved lemon, with orchard fruit in the background. In the style of a reserved Burgundian white, it displays an elegant balance of citrus zippiness and creamy texture, with a long, reflective finish. Organically grown, low-intervention/natural wine, vegan.
