Chardonnay

Chardonnay Wine Details
Price:

Description: There is a village called Chardonnay in the Maconnais in the southern portion of France’s burgundy region. Chardonnay most likely originated there and was spread throughout France by the monks. Earliest recorded reference to Chardonnay was 1330. Our Chardonnay grapes were acquired through leased grapes in several vineyards in the Yadkin Valley Appellation. From these grapes we developed our wine, which is 100% Chardonnay and is fermented in stainless steel only, with no oak. Wine produced is a light, crisp, slightly fruity finish which pairs well with salmon on the grille and chicken wrapped in bacon. The Chardonnay is also used in blending with the Chardonel and the blending of our Red Rita Rose.
