Top 10 California Chards & Chard Dishes

[Randy Caparoso]

Okay folks. Maybe you can give me a hand. I'm writing a wine column that will include two lists -- one for the Top 10 California Chardonnays today (pure quality, regardless of quality), and one for the Top 10 dishes that you like for California Chard.

I may or less have my list together, but I can be swayed here and there (since I'm not an everyday Chard drinker). But please -- no sentimental, futuristic, or super-obscure favorites. I want a brutal listing involving only those with decent commercial availability. Thanks!
