Wine Review: This light yellow wine opens with a faint but elegant floral and melon bouquet. On the palate, the wine is super smooth, slightly creamy, balanced, and has citrus, melon, and a mango like flavor profile. The finish is dry, refreshing, and is quite long. The panel thought this wine would pair nicely with chicken piccata. Enjoy – KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: Full bodied, round, good depth of fruit, medium long finish. Flavors of citrus fruit, apple, lime, roasted nut and toasted oak.

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