A Noble Grape
Chardonnay, known for its remarkable adaptability, is grown in nearly every wine region of the world. It is uniquely able to represent the terroir of its cultivation and the winemaker’s influence. At CheckMate, we aim to showcase the Okanagan’s unique ability to produce Chardonnays of tension and generosity distinct from any other region in the world.
