Rex-Goliath Chardonnay
This is a California, oaked white wine. A classic Chardonnay, it has flavors of ripe pineapple and citrus fruits. I had mine chilled, as an aperitif, but it would be wonderful with seafood, chicken, or pasta dishes such as fettucine alfredo.
Southern Point Chardonnay
This is a California oaked white wine, produced by Southern Point Vineyards. It has flavors of green apple and citrus fruits. I consider it to be full-bodied. I had mine chilled, as an aperitif. However, it would be delightful with seafood or chicken dishes, or cheeses and other appetizers.
2014 William Wright Chardonnay
This is a California oaked white wine. It is a full-bodied, classic Chardonnay, with flavors of ripe pear and tropical fruit, with creamy caramel and toasted oak. I had mine chilled, as an aperitif, but it would be excellent with seafood, chicken, or aged cheese.
2015 Burlwood Cellars Chardonnay
This is a California oaked white wine, purchased at Aldi. It is medium-bodied and semi-dry, with luscious flavors of ripe peach and pineapple. I enjoyed mine chilled, as an aperitif, but it would be excellent with seafood or roast chicken.
Naughty and Nice wine
Naughty and Nice is a sweet white table wine, made for Christmas by North Carolina winery Duplin Cellars. I enjoy all of their holiday wines, but this one is my favorite. Treat YOUR Santa to a bottle!
