Winemaker's Comments

ARIEL Chardonnay has a distinctive combination of buttery apple and butterscotch characteristics, combined with a toasty French oak bouquet, and should continue to develop complexity as it ages. It can be enjoyed immediately, or held three to five years. Enjoy ARIEL Chardonnay with richer seafood, veal, duck and cream pasta dishes.
