+--- Thread: Can anyone suggest a Chardonnay for . . . (/thread-15879.html)

People who don't like Chardonnay.
This is my first post. My DH and I are red wine drinkers - Cabernet mostly. We are hosting a dinner at a local steak house and must select wines to be served. We know most of our guests will want a Chardonnay. We like the Groth Chardonnay, but that's not on the menu.
TIA for any suggestions.
Diane
PS entre choices are filet, chicken and salmon

Hi Doodle and welcome to the board. If you'll list your choices I'm sure someone who drinks them SWs' can give you some help.

Hi Diane, what WW is referring to is what he calls "sissy whites" as he is stricktly a red wine drinker except for sparklers. If you can bring you own wine I would suggest Toad Hollow or a Maconnais such as Macon Villages or Saint Veran.
Otherwise as WW suggests, post you choices here and we will suggest the least worst.

If the menu is steak, I would think many would opt for a red wine. Agree with Innkeeper's suggestions however if some insist on white wine.
