Winking Owl Chardonnay

This is an oaked Chardonnay, from California, purchased at Aldi. It is semi-dry, and medium-bodied, with flavors of ripe apple and pear, with undertones of toasted oak and brown spice. I had mine chilled, as an aperitif, but it would be excellent with grilled seafood or roasted chicken.
