Tasting - Sutter Home Chardonnay

Name: Sutter Home Chardonnay
Variety: Chardonnay
Region: California
Country: United States
Year: 2011
Price: $6.00

Winery Review: Our Chardonnay offers lovely aromas of fresh pear, peach, apple and lemon, enhanced by a rich creamy tone imparted by partial malolactic fermentation and wood aging. The wine's smooth texture and peach flavors persist into a long flavorful aftertaste. This delicious, beautifully balance Chardonnay makes and ideal match for any seafood or poultry dish, as well as for veal or pork chops, cream sauce pastas, and both mild and flavorful cheeses.

My Review: I tried this wine with and on a recommendation from my dad. It was good, very sweet with a grape nose to it. This Chardonnay tasted fruity and somewhat smokey. I liked drinking it with light hors d'oeurves on the side; this made it's flavors stand out a little better.

I tasted this wine with crackers and cheese.
