WHAT: Flat Rock Cellars Seriously Twisted 2008 (white)
WHERE: Niagara Peninsula
WHY: Any of you thinking of cooking shellfish pasta or maybe white pizza this weekend? This Chardonnay-heavy blend would make a fine accompaniment. French oak barrel aging dominates the bouquet but less so the flavours, which show lots of Ontario tastiness: orchard fruit, minerality and citrus. Full texture contrasts with good acidity for a luxurious yet not lethargic experience. If you end up sharing that dinner with a nun, be sure to inquire, “Would you care for some Seriously Twisted, Sister?”
PRICE: 750 ml/$22.95
AVAILABILITY: At selected Vintages outlets as of July 9 (product #87783)
