Inniskillin Montague Vineyard Chardonnay 2020, Four Mile Creek, Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario V.Q.A., Canada: The Chardonnay grapes for Inniskillin's Montague Vineyard 2020 Chardonnay are sourced from a single vineyard in the Four Mile Creek sub-appellation located on the Eastern side of the Niagara. The vines were planted in 1982 and thrive in clay loam pockets on top of the Queenston Formation (bedrock that forms a significant piece of Ontario) and are exposed to intensely dry summer heat. That heat, along with the rapid cooling which takes place at night, produce extremely ripe and tropical-fruit Chards with structure and plenty of aromatics. Dry, medium-bodied and balanced with juicy acidity and layers of ripe apple, pear fruit, tropical fruit, lemon curd, vanilla, apple pie spice, buttercream and toffee flavours on the palate. Enjoy with a roast breast of veal with pear butter. Drink: 2022-2025. 238642 13.50% D 750 mL  $25.95 Score: 91/100. July 16, 2022 Top Rated White Wine. Cool Creamy Cheese Wine Full Review
