Wine of the Day: Plowbuster Chardonnay 2006
Limited run!
Plowbuster Chardonnay 2006 ($20): This is the second label of Carabella Vineyards in Oregon’s Willamette Valley. Stainless-steel fermented and loaded with tropical fruit notes that shine through without being weighted down by butter and oak. Rich and round, with just enough apple-toned acidity on the finish. This wine is limited (600 cases produced) so enjoy it while you can find it!
Michael Grossberg of The Grape Exchange in New Rochelle will be providing the wines for our wine festival this year, and to get everybody excited, he’s written descriptions of many of the more than 200 wines you can taste there.
I’ll post one a day here on Small Bites. Do let me know if you’ve had it before, and what you think!
I’ll be at The Greater New York Wine & Food Festival May 15-17 at the Doubletree Hotel Tarrytown. There’s a Chefs Uncorked! Big Talent-Small Bites kick off party on Friday, two grand tastings, cooking demos and wine seminars Saturday and a casino night Saturday night. Sunday brunch is for VIP guests. Tickets for most events are $75-$100. Visit lohud.com/wine for more information.
