A couple days ago I tried a slightly oaked Chardonnay and really enjoyed it, to my amazement! I decided to try another ... this one even more oaked and from Australia ... where one day I will visit as I LOVE their wine! And this Chardonnay was no exception. I found it light bodied with citrus flavors and a very smooth finish. I'll grade this one higher than the previous with a solid 8/10 and will definitly buy it again! And check out the serving suggestion ... PIZZA (although Hawaiian isn't my favorite, it's still pizza!!!).
