Kimmel Chardonnay is consistently very good. This light yellow colored Chardonnay Opens with a mild apple and faint oak bouquet with a hint of honey.
On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, nicely acidic, refreshing and mouthwatering. Crisp apple and pear blend with hints of oak and nice minerality. I also detected hint of quince jelly. The finish is long, dry and its flavors drift away nicely. This Chard emphasizes its fruit and is well balanced. A second glass is warranted.
Food friendly or great on it's own. I would pair this wine with grilled lemon chicken or wild mushroom and chicken tortellini smothered with a butter cream sauce.
