2023 Wismer-Wingfield Chardonnay, VQA Twenty Mile Bench Chardonnay A Word from Mary: A

A Word from Mary: A smokiness that comes from terroir

with a darker minerality and perhaps a more focused mouthfeel

You can smell the saline seashore crustaceans here

reminiscent of certain Pinot Noirs from New Zealand

one of the august Chardonnay terroirs on the escarpment on the first bench up from Hwy

2023 Wismer-Wingfield Chardonnay, VQA Twenty Mile Bench Chardonnay A Word from Mary: ASuch startling purity that it shocked me and brought a tear to my eye! Wine can stir emotions. Lemons on crunchy chalk and lemon drop acidity. Low tide smells with a nice volume of fruit incredibly rich, yet taut. Chalky mouthfeel, a mineral precision. This is the jive! Wow! A grainy mineral finish. A taut clothesline of a wine. A shocking, nervous electric minerality this will age for a long, long time. A word from Mary: Chiselled! 272 cases made.
