Undivided. Honestly, I swear it was by sheer coincidence
that this happened to be my Wine Wednesday feature this week. But as ironic as
it may be, I find the name most fitting. Perhaps we can all come together over
a lovely glass of wine – the 2015 Undivided Chardonnay.
The label indicates that this is a product of France. It is
most common in French wine that the label indicates the appellation (where the grapes were grown).
In this case, it does not which leads me to believe that this wine was not
bottled at the vineyard but rather at a large facility which may not actually
be in the appellation where the grapes were grown, or that it’s a product
comprised of the grapes or wines from several producers.
In the glass, it is the color of light golden straw. On the
nose, notes of tropical fruit, melon and almond. The mouthfeel is silky and buttery
as the wine reveals well-balanced acidity on the finish. On the palate there
are subtle woody notes, though not necessarily oak. This wine has spent very little
time if any in oak barrels.
We enjoyed this with Salmon with Dill Sauce. Try also with
Italian Chicken Veggie Wraps. Click the links below to print or save the recipe
