Wine Review: When it comes to Chardonnay, I like smooth, well balanced wines and this one from Joseph Carr fits that profile. It opens with a very pleasant and inviting bouquet. On the palate, the wine is round, well balanced, and has a very smooth mouthfeel. The wine has good fruit flavors. The finish is slightly dry. This wine is a terrific food wine that is a steal for $17. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: Very tropical, elegant banana and pineapple aromas, soft mouth feel, with nuances of subtle oak; stone fruit, with a crisp mineral finish

Buy it: Use 1000 Corks to find stores that sell Chardonnay.
