Made by the Wyse family, this Chardonnay was awarded a Silver Medal at the 2018 Pacific Rim International Wine Competition (that's Pacific Rim the locale, not the movie - the wines are not judged by giant robots). Expect ripe citrus and orchard fruit with subtle tropical fruit and oak notes, and pair the wine with lobster tail or pork chops. |
