Wine Review: This deep straw-colored Chardonnay from Pouilly- Fuissé opens with a Bartlett pear and light oak bouquet with hints of vanilla and faint pineapple. On the palate, this wine medium bodied with integrated medium acidity. The mouthfeel is balanced, round, bright, and fresh. The flavor profile is a gentle oak and pear blend with notes of quince and white pepper. I also detected hints of pineapple and just a touch of butterscotch. The finish is dry, and its flavors are nicely extended. I would pair this Chard with lobster bisque drizzled with sherry. Enjoy - Ken
