Indulge in the rich elegance of our 2021 Living Land Chardonnay. Pulled from our Wine Library exclusively for this year’s Advent Calendar this wine is tasting delicious and will be an excellent addition to your holiday festivities.  With notes of lemon peel, green apple, and subtle vanilla, this beautifully balanced wine offers a creamy texture complemented by bright acidity, making every sip both luxurious and refreshing.

Made from grapes from all three of our vineyard sites (Monte Creek Ranch, Lion’s Head, and Keremeos), this wine aged for 15 months in neutral French oak barriques. 2021 was marked by an abundance of early-season heat, with more moderate temperatures later in the summer and fall. This 2021 Living Land Chardonnay was made from small berries that created an intensely flavoured wine.

Tasting Notes:

• Appearance: Pale gold with a luminous sheen
• Aroma: Lemon peel, green apple, and butterscotch
• Palate: Smooth and medium-bodied, with a creamy texture and a crisp, lingering finish

Serving Suggestions:

• Temperature: Serve chilled at 10–12°C (50–54°F) to highlight its richness and aromatic depth.
• Food Pairings: Perfect with roasted chicken, creamy pastas, buttery seafood dishes, or soft cheeses. Also pairs beautifully with casual festive holiday fare like the truffled popcorn in this recipe or popcorn dressed with premade seasoning from https://www.pigeonpopcorn.com/.

Rich, refined, and wonderfully versatile, the 2021 Living Land Chardonnay adds a golden, celebratory note to your holiday countdown.
