Caramel in a Glass


Had the 2005 Laird Carneros Chardonnay last night (for the 2nd or 3rd time), and it was as good as ever! This wine tastes like caramel and is as rich as any dessert. It's a little on the pricey side, coming in at around $28 a bottle, but when you want a treat, this is it! The wine is complex and very big for a chardonnay. A significant amount of oak enhances its flavor but makes it difficult to pair with food. Who cares??? Grab a French baguette and fill up your glass. Who needs a meal when the wine's this good!
