About the wine
Luscious, lip-smacking Lodi white
- This impeccable white will make you whistle with its fresh-baked apple pie flavors, touch of oaky spice and mouth-filling richness from special sur-lie aging.
- Support from Angels gave David his choice of picture-perfect Lodi fruit for the ideal mix of flavor and complexity. His advice for finding a similar Chardonnay: “Double the price and start looking…”
- This white will age gracefully for 2-3 years, but it’s also great for sipping right away, David says. Pair it up with savory chicken and fettuccine in a creamy cheese sauce and enjoy!
Best before
Why wait? If you find a bottle or two in your wine cellar buried behind the vintage port, I think 2-3 years out will still please the palate.
Serving advice
Serve lightly chilled, about 15 minutes out of the fridge.
Food match
Dungeness crabs or any food that starts with chicken. A nice fettuccine napped in cheesy cream sauce or your favorite movie will all work with this wine.
Contains sulphites
