This Chardonnay has intense aromas of lime and mango with hints of toasted vanilla. It has a rich palate with lemon-lime flavors and subtle oak influences. There is excellent length to the fruit on the finish. The addition of Viognier to the blend makes this offering very friendly to most palates. Pairs well with pork, salads, chicken, seafood, tuna or salmon. Le Grand Noir® is what happens when an award-winning wine author and critic, a globetrotting winemaker, and an internationally acclaimed label-designer get together over a few good bottles of wine. They wondered how they might create a wine that brings together the classic and complex, food-friendly, flavors of France with the accessibility of the New World.
