BV or Beaulieu Vineyards
Chardonnay
2012
Vinted and Bottled by Beaulieu Vineyard, Sonoma, CA
Price
Under $2 (purchased at Fry's Marketplace with a 10% off six bottles and $40 off total) as a part of six bottles. The Coastal Estates collection by BV is described by their website as "wines of high quality expression at an exceptional value". Agreed! $11.00 on their website.
Our Opinion
This wine is lemon-y with definite oak tones. It is a traditional Chardonnay flavor making it accessible to all Chardonnay lovers. It definitely needs a bit richer foods to pair with it. I think this would pair very well with a cream sauced pasta. I think delicate fish dishes wouldn't stand up to it but maybe lobster or scallops would. I could drink it alone with some buttery crackers.
