2010 Jordan Russian River Valley Chardonnay

One of my husband's business associates stopped by after work. As he is a lover of Chardonnay, we opened up a bottle of the 2010 Jordan Russian River Valley for our before dinner drink.

It had fruity aromas of apple, apricot and grapefruit with matching flavors, a medium body, refreshing acidity and a long citrus and mineral finish. Delicious with cheese and crackers, it would be even better with broiled lobster and drawn butter.

Highly recommended at approximately $25.
