NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
This Hogue Chardonnay has a bright and inviting nose of honeyed apples and ripe pears with underlying aromas of vanilla, buttered toast, and a pleasant hint of oak.On the palate, it is rich and creamy with a creamy texture and a balanced acidity that carries through to a long and flavorful finish. The wine has a pleasant balance of fruit and oak, with a touch of minerality that brings it all together. Enjoy with grilled seafood or a creamy pasta dish.
