Only slightly less impressive and loaded with pear, white flowers, mineral and cream nuances, the 2011 Chardonnay Canoe Ridge Estate is medium-bodied, round and supple on the palate, with moderate acidity, a beautifully rich texture and a clean finish. Turning juicy and showing more acidity on the finish, it’s a pleasure bent wine that has solid class, purity and freshness. Enjoy it over the coming year. Drink now-2015. Tel.
