FLIGHT #1 – The Many Faces of Chardonnay 2004 Blanc de Blancs, ‘CSV’ Estate Bottled, Beamsville Bench, Cave Spring Cellars Inc. 3836 Main Street, Jordan, ON L0R 1S0 905-562-3581 Web: www.cavespring.ca Produced from a single five acre block of Chardonnay vines planed in 1984 at Cave Spring Vineyard. The soil is stony clay till over sandstone-shale bedrock, laced with dolomite, limestone, shale and sandstone eroded from an Escarpment cliff above the vineyard. The yield was 3.5 tonnes per acre. The base wine was fermented in stainless steel. After bottle fermentation, the wine remained on the lees for more than five years, being disgorged in July 2010. 2008 Reserve Chardonnay, Niagara Peninsula, Henry of Pelham Family Estate Winery 1460 Pelham Road, St. Catharines, ON L2R 6P7 905-684-8423 Web: www.henryofpelham.com The Reserve has been made here since 1990. Traditional in the sense that it is over 40% barrel fermented and most does see barrel aging for 5 to 6 months, it is also a wine that uses a portion of non-oaked wine, is only 25% malo-lactic fermentation, and the oak is only 5 to 10 % new. That lighter touch facilitates a style suiting the vibrancy and the elegance of our cool climate Chardonnay fruit. Over 50% of this wine is from our estate with most of the balance coming from the Beamsville Bench. Added Notes; 50% Estate (24% 105, 16.5% 302, 9.5% 108), 44% Beamsv. B., 6% NOTL; 42% BF Chard; Harvest 21.0 Bx, 7.4 TA, 3.43 pH; Bottling 12.9% Alc., 6.0 TA, 3.57 pH, 2.3 RS 2008 Rosehall Vineyard Chardonnay, Prince Edward County, Rosehall Run 1243 Greer Road, Wellington, ON K0K 3L0 613-399-1183 Web: www.rosehallrun.com The 2008 Chardonnay Rosehall Vineyard is winemaker Dan Sullivan’s pinnacle chardonnay, hand-picked from Rosehall Run’s Estate North Block. The entire cuvee was barrel fermented and aged sur lie for eleven months with malolactic fermentation. A coarse filtration preceded bottling in October, 2009. A ripe tropical fruit and toast bouquet jumps from the glass and flows seamlessly across the palate in a rich yet delicate balance. The signature county minerality shines through on the crisp full finish. 2008 Estate Chardonnay, Beamsville Bench, Hidden Bench Vineyards 4152 Locust Lane, Beamsville, ON L0R 1B0 905-563-8700 Web: www.hiddenbench.com 100% Estate Grown Chardonnay from Locust Lane, Felseck and Rosomel Vineyards. Fruit from individual vineyards was hand-picked, sorted and gently whole bunch pressed, followed by cold settling. The clear juice was then racked, warmed up and gravity transferred to barrel for fermentation. Wild yeast fermentation, accompanied by weekly lees stirring and aging for 10 months in French Oak barrels (15% new), created an elegant wine, showing a flinty minerality so characteristic to the Beamsville Bench. Individual vineyard batches were kept separate until blending in July 2009. 2009 Chardonnay Musqué, Estate Bottled Niagara-on-the-Lake, Château des Charmes Wines Ltd. 1025 York Road, Niagara-on-the-Lake, ON L0S 1P0 905-262-4219 Web: www.chateaudescharmes.com Chardonnay Musqué is a unique clone of Chardonnay that was pioneered in the Niagara Peninsula by Château des Charmes’ founder Paul Bosc. 2009 Chardonnay Musqué is pale gold in colour with a wonderful aromatic bouquet of spiced fruit and honeysuckle. This full bodied Chardonnay is non-oaked in order to allow the wine to fully express its unique musqué characteristic. 2009 Unoaked Chardonnay, Niagara Peninsula, Henry of Pelham Family Estate Winery 1460 Pelham Road, St. Catharines, ON L2R 6P7 905-684-8423 Web: www.henryofpelham.com Non-oaked Chardonnay has been an integral part of our winemaking philosophy for over a decade. The pure expression of minerality and fruit is a welcome departure from certain very rich Chardonnay styles. Our cool climate adds extra vibrancy and style underlined by the choice to maintain most of this wine without malo-lactic fermentation. The grapes are sourced from local sites within sub- appellations all West of the Welland canal; Creek Shores, our own estate on Short Hills Bench and Lincoln Lakeshore. Added notes: Sub-Appellation composition: 55% Creek Shores (Nokara); 35% Short Hills Bench; 10% Lincoln Lakeshore. Varietal: 94.5% Chardonnay; 5.5% Pinot Blanc. Harvest at 20.7 Bx, 10.1 TA, 3.21 pH. Bottle at 12.6 Alc., 6.3 TA, 3.52 pH, 3.2 RS, 0.049 VA 2009 Unoaked Charlotte’s Chardonnay, Twenty Mile Bench, Stoney Ridge Estate Winery 3201 King Street, Vineland, ON L0R 2C0 905-562-1324 Web: www.stoneyridge.com The creation of this wine dates to the 1990’s when Charlotte, the winemaker’s wife, requested an un-oaked Chardonnay. Originally the wine was a blend with Gewurztraminer, replaced now by Chardonnay Musque to provide the appealing aromatics and delicious fruit. This wine has won gold at the Canadian Wine Awards, Silver and Best Value at Intervin and received a 90 point score in Wine Tidings. This wine is available at the LCBO. Alcohol: 12.5%; T.A.: 8g/L; Res. Sugar: 8g/L 2007 Chardonnay Icewine, Canadian Oak Aged, Niagara Peninsula, Inniskillin Wines Inc. 1499 Line 3, Niagara on the Lake, ON L0S 1J0 905-468-2187 Web: www.inniskillin.com Winemaker Bruce Nicholson found this a unique experiment based on his own personal love of Chardonnay. After experimenting with Canadian Oak with his 2006 Riesling Icewine, Bruce decided to age his Chardonnay Icewine in Canadian Oak. Notes: Alcohol-9%; pH-3.13; Residual sugar-238 g/l. Fermented and aged in Canadian Oak for 8 months. Cases produced: 216 (4.5 l/case) 3 FLIGHT #2 – Aged Chardonnays 2005 Chardonnay, Niagara Peninsula, Flat Rock Cellars 2727 Seventh Street, Jordan Station, ON L0R 1S0 905-562-8994 Web: www.flatrockcellars.com Harvested in late September of 2005, this wine was 56% fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks, with the remainder fermented in second fill or older French Oak barrels. Fermentation was carried out by a combination of wild and selected yeast. The wine remained in barrel and tank for 10 months prior to blending and bottling. Lees stirring and partial malolactic fermentation during this time has added great weight and complexity to the wine.

Later, in the 1800s, wealthy Chileans travelling to Europe were inspired by the great Bordeaux of the day.

While those early links with Europe set the pattern, recent developments in the wine industry have confirmed it.

  • PW Wine Cellar List - January 2021 Page 1 by the GLASS
    The Prince of Wales Hotel WINE CELLAR MENU Chef Sommelier ~ Fred Gamula The Niagara Peninsula Wine Region The Niagara Peninsula has special climate and soil conditions that allow for the cultivation of premium wine- grape varietals. Climate is a key factor; a “Micro climate” is a small region sheltered from extreme climatic conditions which enables the grape to thrive. The Niagara region is a classic example. Here within an otherwise severe climate, exists a unique pocket of land which provides perfect conditions for grape growing. The Niagara Peninsula has the temperature-moderating influences of Lake Erie and Lake Ontario. The Niagara Escarpment acts as an ideal wind protection, sheltering the area from harsher weather conditions which the surrounding areas may receive. Rolling hills with soil comprised of sand-gravel-clay mixture provide optimal conditions, affording the vines greater sun exposure and improved natural drainage. In 1988 Ontario introduced an appellation system known as Vintners Quality Alliance (, V.Q.A.). This alliance was designed after careful study of those of France (A.O.C.), Germany (Q.M.P.), Italy (D.O.C.), and the United States (B.A.T.F.), to help give Ontario wineries worldwide respect and quality standards. Bottles are given a seal which stipulates a general D.V.A. (Designated Viticultural Area) or a more specific D.V.A.. This designation assures that all the grapes that went into the prouction of the bottle of wine were in fact locally grown in Ontario.
