About this wine
Hillside’s first 100% Chardonnay (maybe ever!) This fruit was grown in the Wildwood Vineyard, a young planting on the south end of the Naramata Bench. True to its origin, the juice kicked off with a wild ferment that was difficult to tame. We decided to embrace it and were rewarded with a refreshing bright wine with
incredible weight and texture on the palate.
