Chardonnay · California · USA
Producer Notes
Refreshing aromas of lime zest, melon and apple are layered with notes of honey and pear. On the palate, notes of Meyer lemon give this wine a bright finish. Pair this wine with shellfish or fish high in Omega-3 fatty acids, which will complement its bright nature. Winery Chef Chris Kennedy also recommends roasted beets with orange or lobster risotto.
