Ferrari-Carano Chardonnay Reserve 2015

This wine entices with aromas of baked apple, white peach, cinnamon, butterscotch, hazelnut and marshmallow complemented by elegant, upfront flavors of pear, fig, orange blossom, creamy vanilla, graham cracker and caramel toast on the finish. The cool climate of Napa Valley Carneros and Russian River Valley impart their unique finesse to the wine, while the Alexander Valley component adds an intensely rich mouth-filling character.

This full-bodied Chardonnay pairs perfectly with richer dishes like roast chicken or pork, pasta in a creamy sauce, eggs benedict, richer seafood such as roasted lobster or scallops, grilled veal chops with mushrooms, late summer vegetables like butternut squash, corn or pumpkin...pumpkin ravioli for fall, and foie gras for a special treat.
