Entwine Chardonnay 2011

Livermore, San Francisco Bay, California, United StatesEntwine is a unique project pulled together by the Food Network and Wente Vineyards and aimed at a younger wine drinker. They recommend you pair it with "potato chips, grilled cheese sandwiches and hanging out with friends". I can't disagree there - though I wager it's also intended to pair with sitting in front of the TV & Food Network programming. The sustainably harvested grapes were fermented in stainless steel and oak, building freshness and spicy creaminess. Toast, vanilla, apple butter, pear and light caramel notes dominate, with a sprig of fresh apple and citrus on the finish.Tasted: 14 December 2014Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
