Out in Boca at Lemongrass with Sheen and Chicago's own Chris M... Me and Chris go back a ways and he is looking to leave the Windy City to set up shop in the paradise that is south Florida... Anyway, we are eating, as if we are going to be executed tomorrow and the 60-ish queen of a waiter, who I affectionately call "Mr. Chow" (Leslie Chow of Hanover fame) stares at me the way I stare at a chicken parmigiana hero... Anyway, this wine... Crisp, fruit, buttery... Nice. Can't believe how many years have gone by since me and this Kennedy look-a-like shared an office...

Very crisp, fruity and balanced. Excellent with spicy Thai food.

Smooth, light bodied, minerality comes through, slight citrus notes, crisp, enjoyable with fried whitefish on a pile of sautéed vegetables, with Josh Groban singing Italian romantic tearjerkers in the background...

Was amazing with my Puerto Rican pastele with pork. It brought a wonderful sweetness to the wine. It's not sweet but with the pork it was really good with a salty pork. Nice Chardonnay that isn't powerfully oaky either
