What to Expect
Chardonnay is America's most popular grape and with good reason. Made in styles that range from steely, mineral laced wines with crisp green apple fruit to wines that are buttery, rich, and laden with tropical fruits, there is a Chardonnay that will appeal to every palate. Chardonnay is most closely associated with France's Burgundy region and California's Northern valleys though it has proven successful around the globe.
Winemakers Notes
This chardonnay from New Zealand has earned quite a following for its exceptional value! We love how the subtle flavors of butterscotch and baking spices are balanced with clean acidity. But don't take our word for it. Wine Spectator writes "Streamlined and subtle, with fine-grained intensity to the pear, lemon blossom, orange curd and soya flavors. Mineral nuances and nicely integrated oak tones fold into the finish. Drink now through 2010."Cheese Pairings: Camembert, St Andre, Cypress Grove ChevreFood Pairings: Fish, Chicken, or Pasta with Butter Sauces or Cream Sauces
