Chardonnay takes oak well. Our Reserve Chardonnay is fermented in stainless steel tanks and aged in French and American oak barrels for about six months. This Chardonnay is put through a malolactic fermentation process which tempers the crispness and brings out a rich, buttery taste. Our version of this popular wine is appropriate for all occasions. The apple aroma, smoky vanilla taste and the buttery finish are supported by a lively acidity. A perfect compliment for fried seafood or seafood in a lighter sauce.

Very aromatic nose, with floral, spicy aromas and sweet tropical fruit flavors. Medium body with exotic rose, jasmine and orange blossom notes and sweet, ripe fruit balanced by light yet crisp acidity. Gewurztraminer is becoming a new classic pairing for Asian cuisine. Because the dish has so many flavors and contrasting textures you need a wine with an abundance of taste to stand up to it. The Gewurztraminer does just that. It washes away the salt and spice with exotic flavors and readies your mouth for your next bite.
