Chardonnay Suggestions

[Botafogo]

The best "Chardonnay" made in California for your tastes is probably the Chalone Pinot Blanc (which is NOT Chard but has all those flavors you are looking for in spades) with McIllroy and White Rock Chards right behind (although more expensive).

But, PLEASE, try a wide range of styles and varieties with a good selection of diffent foods to see what's really out there before spending that kind of money on biggus buckus Chards.
