Pelee Island Winery Chardonnay 2016
To save my wine budget I surf the LCBO website for limited time offers, which can save me a buck or two. Until November 11th, Pelee Island Winery Chardonnay 2016 is on sale for $11.45 on the LCBO’s general list, down a dollar. Light straw in colour, this bargain-priced Ontario wine has a nose of apple, lemon and undergrowth; it’s medium-bodied, dry, with apple and peach flavours and a floral note on the end taste. It’s got good length on the palate. Match it with grilled fish or chicken. That’s Pelee Island Winery Chardonnay 2016 from Ontario. For Post City Magazines, I’m Tony Aspler, 680 NEWS.
