Wine Review: This white gold colored Chardonnay from La Crema opens with a pleasant and inviting lemon, pineapple and gentle oak bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with plus acidity and is very fresh. The flavor profile is an oak influenced baked apple with hints of lemon, butter, vanilla and nutmeg. The finish is pleasant and drifts away nicely. This Chard is very food friendly. It would be a great glass pour at a seafood restaurant. I would pair it with a seafood casserole or a crab cake. Enjoy – Ken

Winemaker Notes: Aromas of Meyer lemon, gala apple, and subtle hints of oak are followed by flavors of white stone fruit, yellow plum, and honeydew melon. On the palate, the wine is vibrant and concentrated with juicy acidity that drives a lingering finish.
