Wine Review: If you are looking for a very reasonably priced Chardonnay alternative, this one from Washington state is worthy of your time and palate. It is pale yellow colored and opens with a pleasant and attractive mild lemon bouquet with a hint of minerality. On the palate, this wine is light bodied and very nicely balanced between it fruit and gentle acidity. The flavor profile is a tasty light lime-lemon with a note of nicely integrated minerality. The finish is dry and nicely refreshing as its pleasant minerality continues to drift along. This is a nice food wine and I would pair it with chicken piccata. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: The Buried Cane Chardonnay is a crisp, dry white with the ripe apple, gooseberry, quince, and honeydew melon, layered with jasmine and green tea aromas. Mouthfeel is clean and generous, with supple balance and a mineral finish. Enjoy this wine with chicken, seafood, pork and vegetable dishes.
