Reviewed June 12, 2010

Score: 87/100

Tasting Note: Vintages Wine Panel: Citrus-, peach-, apple-, toast and mango-scented Chardonnay with a lovely round and ripe texture on the palate. Mid-palate acids come in to bring a fine balance. It’s fairly full bodied and has a long fruity/oaky finish. My note: Good value for this toasty, buttery Chardonnay with green apple notes. Full-bodied and supple.

Food matches: grilled chicken with a wild mushroom sauce

More pairings: cheddar: sharp: 1 year - 4 years, Coeur de Thiérache, Epoisses de Bourgogne, peanut sauce dishes, quiche: asparagus, shrimp: coconut: Thai, thyme. More pairings...
