Low Life Barrel House Lumiere Chardonnay - Canada

 

What We Say:

A blend of Chardonnay, Riesling and Vidal, this is a textured, aromatic wine with good orchard fruit character and a refreshing acidity. It's a blend of Chardonnay's structure and texture with Riesling's aromatic intensity and Vidal's freshness, the complexity and acidity being the result of extended barrel ageing. The nose is very much of crisp apple, ripe pear and white peach with a hint of white blossom and a touch of honey. The palate is all orchard fruit with some very gentle floral notes and a rounded, supple texture. There's plenty of bright acidity to keep it in balance. The ageing has given it a good depth and a rather long, subtly savoury finish.

The Winnipeg-based producer focuses on an organic and biodynamic approach to sourcing grapes. Aged for about 18 months in large oak vessels, including a 1,200-litre foudre, the Lumiere develops texture and aromatic complexity without overwhelming the fruit. Bottled unfiltered and without added sulphites, the result is a medium-bodied white with a rounded palate, expressive aromatics, and refreshing acidity.
