Ultimately, if you want the best expression of Chardonnay, you’ve got to go to France.
Alois Lageder Lagrein “Lindenburg,” 2006. Bought from the list for $72 at Ombra, Studio City. Arlene: Really nicely balanced. Fruity, but strong enough to stand up to the chili oil in my pasta sauce. Tasted consistently good through the bottle. Michelle S.: Smooth, but not as full-bodied as I expect from red wines. It was more enjoyable as a result.
