NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
The Ernest & Julio Gallo Estate Chardonnay is a delightful white wine.With its pale golden color, this wine offers a bouquet of ripe tropical fruits, such as pineapple and mango, along with hints of citrus and vanilla. On the palate, it is rich and creamy, with flavors of ripe pear, apple, and a touch of oak. The acidity is well-balanced, providing a refreshing finish. This Chardonnay is a versatile wine that pairs well with a variety of dishes, including roasted chicken, seafood, and creamy pasta dishes. It is best served chilled to fully appreciate its vibrant flavors and smooth texture.
