Sip of the Day

Day #[wpdts-day-of-year start=”post-created”] of the year.

Sequoia Grove Napa Valley Chardonnay

It’s National cookie exchange day! This year its unlikely you’re getting together with a bunch of friends to swap cookies, so in 2020 you get to keep all of your favorite cookies to yourself! There’s nothing like baking cookies at home, opening up a bottle of wine and watching Elf or It’s a Wonderful Life. Talk about creating a mood! I baked my grandmother’s ‘famous’ Mexican Wedding cookies and paired them with Sequoia Grove Chardonnay. You can get my grandma’s recipe linked below on Wine365 (shameless plug) and try out this fabulous combination for yourself.

Tasting Notes

Very pale gold in color, this classic Chardonnay is the ideal balance of Old World restraint with California sunshine. The aromas and flavors are delicate, with citrus, floral and mineral notes on a wine of fresh acidity and medium body.

Food Match

This is a very food-friendly wine and will go well with most dishes, from appetizers to soups to main courses. Try it with a just-picked spring lettuce and fresh herb salad, or with a mature, delicate brie cheese.
