Pairing Notes:

Roasted butternut squash and crunchy pumpkin seed granola come together in a bowl of velvety, autumnal comfort. The 2021 Balance Barrel Fermented Chardonnay—with its creamy texture, gentle oak, and bright acidity—mirrors the richness of the soup while lifting its flavours into perfect harmony. A golden moment of seasonal balance in every bite and sip.
