Tasting note:

Vintages Wine Panel: Like winemaking brothers Jacques and François Lurton, the Chardonnay grape has crossed the globe from France and now makes remarkable wines in Argentina. Grown in the sunny high altitude vineyards of the Uco Valley, this complex Chardonnay is packed with peach and tropical fruit flavors, accented by smoky oak. My note: A rich, creamy Chardonnay with generous aromas of ripe pears, peaches, green apples and vanilla. A true comfort wine among whites. Food matches: mango chicken, turkey scaloppini, chicken alfredo, seafood risotto, shrimp cocktail.

Yes, I'm a certified sommelier and was named the World's Best Wine Writer at the World Food Media Awards. Blah, blah, blah. What really matters is that I know which wines can increase your hedonistic happiness... a lot. Don't worry, spam doesn't pair well with wine!
