Four different Chardonnays worth trying

Here are four Chardonnay wines that are different but have some similar qualities.

I recently tried 4 Chardonnay wines that were all wonderful and worth purchasing. 

Chateau St. Jean Sonoma County Chardonnay: What a great Chardonnay a little creamy not to oaky and has a mineral taste. The bouquet has tastes of Lemon zest, a little bit of melon, nut, and a hint of floral. Very light on the oak aging.  Great wine that I would recommend with sushi or light pasta dishes. 












Simi Chardonnay Sonoma County Chardonnay: If you are into buttery creamy Chardonnays then this is your pick. This is a buttery Chardonnay with a hint of oak, a little bit of citrus, vanilla, and honey. Great with pasta light red sauce or a heavy cream sauce. Also goes with crab cakes, seafood casseroles, or seafood chowder. 












Francis Ford Coppola Director's Chardonnay: This is a very light Chardonnay it's fermented in Stainless steel instead of oak. Very crisp, with tastes of pear, apple, citrus, and a little bit of vanilla. I would recommend this with any fish, chicken, or cheese dishes. Very vibrant wine nothing but the true taste of Chardonnay comes out!












Francis Ford Coppola Diamond Collection Chardonnay: The big dog Chardonnay, this is very buttery, very oaky, and very creamy. Tastes of cream, brown sugar, carmel, apple, and a hint of pear. Very crisp and full-bodied Chardonnay. I would recommend this award winning Chardonnay with pasta with clams, alfredo sauce, chicken cordon blu, and fried chicken. 









You can try all these wines tonight at Liquor City Bakewell tonight from 4 - 8 pm. Please join me, it's free. 

Cheers,
