Especially after spending years thinking that all Chardonnay is like oaky California Chardonnay.<br />I wonder if it is available online somewhere? I would like to order some for my family in the States. <br />Please let me know if you find it.<br /><br />Hamish<br />Very true...<br />I remember buying Rombauer and Grgich Hills from Napa/Sonoma and they are very big Chardonnays! Maybe I wasn't enjoying them with the right meal?<br />The answer to your question follows from Mr Q.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18245742506531002363noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20775625.post-35700742215045320362010-09-29T20:01:48.255+02:002010-09-29T20:01:48.255+02:00Veronica

However even the big chunky oaky styles need acidity to hold them up. The best wines have the best balance and freshness. They can be at all ends of the spectrum.<br />Chateau Gourgazaud are producing excellent wines.

A friend introduced me to white burgundy and I fell in love. When I was in northern Italy I found a partially oaked chardonnay that was heaven.
