This reserve Chardonnay from Rodney Strong Vineyards is creamy, lush, and makes you feel like you should be sitting in a warm bakery with a slice of pie. This oaked white wine displays white floral and baked apple aromas, with a bright acidity that balances the structured mouthfeel. This Chardonnay will pair well with roast chicken, veal chops with mushrooms, or a variety of grilled seafood dishes.
