| This is one of 43 items out of 92 releases not presented for evaluation under new LCBO policies. Any item not tasted is assigned an interim ZERO-STAR (-) rating and an interim 0-POINT proxy score until properly assessed. The 2014 (*+) was released on June 11, 2016 at $13.95. Here is my previous note: Bright light yellow colour. Intense, very spicy, honeyed, bright, ripe melon-lemon nose. Dry, medium bodied, spicy, baked melon-apple-lemon flavours with a lingering, crisp, refreshing finish. The single bottle sampled had some reductive, sulphury notes. Has 13% alcohol and 6 g/L residual sugar with lot number L14J1518/12/15 on the back label. Screwcap closure. |

| TASTING NOTE: This fruit-forward Chardonnay is from Susana Balbo, one of the world's leading and most innovative winemakers. It features lemon, tropical fruit and a delicate touch of vanilla. A wine of solid character that offers great value. Pair with roasted chicken. (Vintages panel, Feb. 2019) |
