Description

Arrowhead Spring Vineyards Chardonnay

We produce wines that reflect the thoughtfully chosen soils and climates from which they emanate. We respect our surroundings, maintain good stewardship of the land, uphold our commitment to the principles of sustainable farming and seek a deeper understanding of the natural living systems around us and our vineyard.

Great wine starts in the vineyards. Cluster thinning, leaf removal, shoot thinning and balanced pruning all lead to grapes that are balanced, flavorful and optimized for winemaking. Traditional winemaking methods are employed to create wine reflective of our terroir, with minimal intervention. Fermented and aged entirely in stainless steel, this Chardonnay is crafted to let the pure character of our estate fruit and the cool-climate personality of the Niagara Escarpment speak for themselves.

The Niagara Escarpment has limestone-based soils dating from the Paleozoic era when the land was under a warm sea abundant with corals and shellfish. Combined with abundant summer sunshine and a cooler climate moderated by Lake Ontario, our vineyards produce balanced wines.
