Westcott Vineyards Chardonnay

A Taste of Elegance from Canada

Introducing Westcott Vineyards Chardonnay, an elegant expression of the Chardonnay varietal from a small family producer in the unique climate of the Niagara region of Canada. This complex wine is a delightful reflection of the couple's passion for winemaking, resulting in a Chardonnay that showcases baked apple, spice, and pineapple flavours.

A Family Journey

Having enjoyed global careers in banking and tech, Grant Westcott and Carolyn Hurst knew they weren't the 'retiring' kind. With Carolyn's deep roots in the Niagara region and her passion for wine, along with Grant's background as a former cattle farmer, purchasing and running a vineyard felt like the perfect way for the couple to combine their passions. Initially, they aimed to grow grapes for other wineries but soon realised their vision was to produce their own wine under the Westcott Vineyards label.

With winemaker Arthur Harder joining the team, they crafted their first vintage in 2012. In true 'garagistes' style, their initial wines were made in their equipment barn while they navigated the permit process for the main winery building. Their continued study of cool climate viticulture and the guidance of expert Alain Sutre further enhanced their winemaking journey. The main building, featuring reclaimed timber from a 200-year-old barn, began construction in 2013, and by July 2014, the tasting room was open with their daughter, Victoria Westcott, leading the customer experience.

Rich Flavours and Aromas

Westcott Vineyards Chardonnay presents a beautiful golden hue that glimmers in the glass. The nose is a bouquet of vibrant aromas, featuring ripe pear, green apple, and delicate floral notes, complemented by hints of vanilla and toasted oak. On the palate, this Chardonnay is luscious and mouth-filling, showcasing flavours of baked apple, spice, and pineapple, all harmoniously balanced by bright acidity. The finish is long and refreshing, leaving a lasting impression of elegance.
