Beginning with an expressive nose, the 2017 Chardonnay Canoe Ridge Estate Vineyard wafts from the glass with soft oak tones, yellow apple and pear skin and lemon curd with cinnamon spice. Medium to full-bodied, it has a clean and correct mouthfeel as it delivers pleasure across the mid-palate, then ends with a clean, crisp finish. This shows good value for the price. Just over 2,000 cases were made.
