'09 Shelton Chardonnay

[Innkeeper]

We stopped by Shelton on a trip we just got back from. We picked up their Chardonnay Bin 17 ($11.99), and Estate Cabernet Franc ($13.99). We were on our way to a reunion of Bev's extended family in Cordele, GA. Her cousin loves Chardonnay, so that's why we picked this one up. It is made in stainless with no exposure to oak, tho they also make one they call their Estate Chardonnay that is oaky.

This one was very plesant and went just fine with a chicken breast dinner that was the capstone of the reunion. It was very similar to the Knapp Finger Lakes Chardonnay, but slightly lighter. Not knocking it all. It was still a very drinkable wine that would go with either a light meal or as an aperitif.

We brought the Cab Franc home, keeping it in the cooler all the way.
