Reviews and Ratings

From the Niagara Peninsula wine region, Domaine Queylus Tradition 2016 Chardonnay is light gold in the glass with ripe peach, pear and honeyed-citrus aromas on the nose. Dry and lean with fresh pear, yellow apple, lemon zest flavours with a chalky mineral finish. Great balance of acidity to fruit. Two-thirds of the cuvée is aged in previous use oak barrels from one to four years old. The Chardonnay is aged up to one year in bottle prior to its release to round out the wine and enhance its mouthfeel. - Community Wine Reviews

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.
