Reviews and Ratings

Jon Steeves - Sommelier rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Rich and supple, this full-bodied balanced Chardonnay is accessibly priced, approachable and has crowd pleasing appeal. Ripe apple, vanilla bean and a hint of citrus. Pair with roast chicken or enjoy with appetizers as a summer sipper. Tasted 2016 vintage in July 2017. 89 points.
Monique Sosa - Accredited Sommelier rated this wine as 88/100 with the following review:

Moderate floral aromas pave the way to a buttery mouthfeel, juicy acidity, citrus, cedar and ripe orchard fruit flavours. Enjoy with roasted chicken. Tasted July 2017 by @sommsosa | bespoketastings.ca
New vintage, same conversation. “Hey Mom, remember when Chardonnays were flavourful and had texture? No, neither do I, but we’ve made one that totally does.” She didn’t before, but she does now! Frenzy Chard is about upfront opulence and flavour. If you don’t think you like Chardonnay, than you haven’t had the right ones yet. This is the one for you! Balanced oak, vanilla, spice. Soft acidity. Sexy, sexy stuff.
