Chardonnay -, Napa Valley

Chardonnay -, Napa Valley Wine Details
Price: $12.99 per bottle

Description: Topian has exploited Carneros' virtues to make its 2002 Chardonnay, which explodes with the tropical fruit flavors that you expect from a Californian Chardonnay. Aging in oak barrels has added some vanilla scents, but pineapple, lime, and mango aromas remain dominant. This is a great wine for summer, full-bodied enough to feel voluptuous in the mouth, but still refreshing and not overbearing. A full-flavored white wine like the Topian Chardonnay goes great with chicken and even lighter preparations of red meat, but richer fish like tuna or salmon may be its best pairing.
