A solid Canadian Chard that’s a nice change from the standard model for an oaked Chard

Medium+ intensity aromas of bubblegum, sweet vanilla, and hints of butterscotch. It's medium-bodied with pleasing aroma replays and subtle oak flavours. It has good acidity and a medium-long finish. Tasted Sept/2015.
