Wine Review: If you like oaky Chardonnay, you will like this offering from Fritz. This pale-straw colored Chardonnay opens with a fragrant butterscotch and oak bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium to full bodied, slightly acidic and juicy. The flavor profile like the nose, features an oak and butterscotch blend with notes of pear and a hint of pineapple. The finish is dry and subtle. I would pair this Chard with a chicken and wild mushroom tortellini with a mild butter cream sauce. Enjoy - Ken
