Description:
Lake Breeze Vineyards, situated on British Columbia's Naramata Bench, has been producing wines that embody the unique terroir of the region. In 2016, they introduced the MacIntyre Heritage Reserve label, featuring premium wines like the 'Astra' Chardonnay, which showcases the winery's dedication to crafting exceptional expressions of classic varietals.
Wine Description
The 2021 'Astra' Chardonnay is a testament to Lake Breeze's commitment to excellence. While specific tasting notes for this vintage are not available, previous releases have showcased a pale straw hue with aromas of citrus and green apple. The palate typically offers a balance of bright acidity and subtle oak influences, leading to a clean, crisp finish. Earlier vintages have been noted for their mix of citrus, pear, and spicy hazelnut flavours, with a nose combining bright green apple and citrus with buttery tones.
Food Pairing
This Chardonnay pairs excellently with dishes such as lobster, roasted chicken, or grilled halibut. Its crisp acidity and subtle oak nuances complement creamy or buttery sauces, while its fresh citrus notes enhance delicate seafood flavours. Together, these pairings highlight the wine’s depth and character, creating a memorable dining experience.
