Classis Cakebread Chardonnay – Paired with Dungeness Crab

Known for their Chardonnay, Cakebread Cellars’ iconic wine is the perfect winter varietal for white wine lovers. This wine has a pretty, floral nose with fresh citrus, orange blossom and white peach, but the real treat is in the mouth. The viscosity coats the palate; it is weighty on the tongue yet well-balanced with acidity. This is a versatile food-pairing wine, enjoyable with fresh salads, grilled scallops, and nearly any selection of cheeses.
