Andrea Shapiro rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Reserve Chardonnay from Okanagan Valley’s Mission Hill. Pleasant pineapple, golden apple, with a refreshing splash of citrus. Topical elements of banana, vanilla and delicate buttery caramel showing a traditional creamy mouthfeel. Well balanced with medium plus alert acidity and a buoyant body and finish. Pair with thin crust herbed Bechamel pizza. 90 points

From Nat's second session of the on-line course. Served with hard cheeses, shrimp simmered in herbs & root veg. Great BC Chardonnay with a solid medium finish.

Monique Sosa rated this wine as 89/100 with the following review:

Fresh delightful aromas and flavours. Prominent notes include yellow apple, peach, pear, citrus blossom and mild sweet baking spice notes. The palate is dry and mouthwatering with mild buttery texture throughout the finish. A prime Chardonnay for East Coast Chowder. Tasted Nov 2017 by @sommsosa | bespoketastings.ca
