Wine Review: This yellow colored Chard opens with a pleasant light apple and melon like bouquet. On the palate, this medium bodied wine is crisp and shows good acidity. The flavor profile is a mineral infused blend of apricot and light lemon with hints of caramel. The finish is dry, refreshing, and subtle. The panel felt this wine would pair very well with chicken cordon bleu or veal piccata. Enjoy - KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: Classic pale straw in color, with enticing aromas of clover honey and ripe pineapple. On the palate, it offers appealing tropical fruit, citrus, and spiced baked apple flavors. Dry and mouthfilling, this Chardonnay possesses sufficient structure to age for a few years, but is delicious now.

Organic status: not organic
