A confident example of what cool-climate Ontario Chardonnay can achieve.
Farmed organically and biodynamically, the grapes for this wine were hand-harvested over multiple passes to ensure optimal balance and concentration. This Chardonnay leans toward the Old World in spirit. Mineral-driven. Linear. Focused. It offers the clarity and structure that lovers of Chablis appreciate, while expressing the unmistakable identity of Ottawa’s Carp Ridge.
