Chardonel

Chardonel Wine Details
Price:

Description: The nose of Chardonel leans toward a complexity of oak, peaches, tropical fruit, and a touch of muskmelon. This full-bodied wine exhibits light toasty oak, ripe apple and pear flavors that finish strong all the way to the end. The mid-palate is crisp with only a hint of butter, which makes this European style dry white wine a great choice for chicken, pork and vegetables. Serve at room temperature to slightly chilled. This is a new grape variety, having been developed as a cross between Chardonnay and Seyval at Cornell University in New York in the mid 1950’s.
