Niagara College Teaching Winery 2006 Barrel - Fermented Chardonnay
From the Donald Ziraldo Vineyard beside the college comes a rich, ripe showboat chardonnay. Generous oak imparts sawdust and a slightly resinous butterscotch character, along with ripe peach from the warm microclimate of St. David’s. Medium-full bodied, a touch sweet and creamy, yet firmed by good acidity. Pair it with grilled shrimp drenched in garlic and butter. www.nctwinery.ca.
