Product Detail

Quarry Road Estate Chardonnay VQA, Tawse Winery 2011 - Case of 6 White Wines

"Heady aromas of toasted hazelnuts and almonds, with lemon drop, fresh golden apple and minerals that captivate the senses. The flavours show refined lemon meringue, spiced apple and a gently buttery and silky citrus rich texture. The prolonged finish unveils wet stones and lemon zest. Created from a vineyard rich in limestone on the Vinemount Ridge." 93 points - Gord Stimmell, Taste Magazine, Spring/Summer 2012 (2010 vintage) "Certified organic/biodynamic, the alluring nose of toasty notes, tangerine and assorted baking spice herald a stunning explosion of flavour. A wash of sweet, spiced, ripe apple and pear meld with nectarine and tropical fruit along with wisps of oak. The incredible mid palate of fruit-laden flavour extends through the lip-smacking aftertaste of citrus, minerality and succulent white peach. It’s balanced, complex and structured." 5 out of 5 stars - WineCurrent.com, June 2012 (2010 vintage) ### Technical Notes - Alcohol: 13.5% alc./vol. - Grapes: 100% Chardonnay - Wine Style: Rich and toasty whites - Vintage: 2011 - Farming Method: Traditional, Organic, Sustainable ### About Tawse Winery Winery of the Year - Canadian Wine Awards 2010 The Tawse Winery is nestled in the gentle slopes of our 32-acre vineyard located on the Vineland Double Bench of the Niagara Escarpment. In designing our facility we had three goals in mind. First, design a winery that uses the naturally sloping terrain to create a six level gravity flow processing facility. By using gravity, we gently handle our fruit and juice from pressing to bottling with minimum manipulation that can bruise or aerate the wine, releasing some of the intense bouquets and flavors. The philosophy behind creating the Tawse Winery was a blend in itself. We passionately believed in practicing traditional artisanal winemaking techniques. We also believed that enhancing these techniques with state-of-the-art gravity-fed processing and natural geo-thermal energy would allow us to gently and skillfully process each varietal bringing out its individual nuances and characteristics without compromise. So it became our mission to create an innovative, ecologically friendly winemaking facility and invite some of the most renowned winemaking expertise in the world, such as Pascal Marchand from Burgundy to help us with our goal of making some of the finest wines in Canada. At Tawse we do not believe quality is something you can arrive at quickly. Crafting our wines takes more time, but the results are truly worth the wait. Today the Tawse Winery produces exceptional premium wines in very limited quantities. Thankfully our hard work has been appreciated, as many critics have graciously noted that Tawse is successfully creating some of the most outstanding wines in Ontario. ### About Wine Online At Wine Online, we aim to provide an unmatched shopping experience by providing wine lovers with the opportunity to: - Purchase quality-focused wines not otherwise retailed in their province - Order wine and wine accessories online from the comfort of their home, office, or cottage - or anywhere in-between - Have wine delivered to their door - Research each wine before purchasing it: e.g., tasting notes, expert 3rd party reviews, food complements, serving/storing notes, etc. - Access fine wine in rural regions Perhaps the most exciting part of our job is sourcing wine.
