Description Legends received high marks from me during the Niagara New Vintage Festival for their 2006 Semillon – which was a wonderously summer-type wine, and the first straight Semillon in Ontario. Now it’s time to try a blend using that same Semillon and some Chardonnay. The nose is all citrus, mainly lemon, with hints of floral and melon, which must come from the Chardonnay side of things, leading me to believe there may be some Musque in here as well. The citrus-ness seems to back out on the tastebuds, letting the Chardonnay take over with its melon and floral notes … its smooth with a lingering sweet-like finish. If you tried the straight Semillon and found it a little too crisp and tangy for your liking, this is a great alternative.
