4 pm PST - Join Master Sommelier Andrea Robinson LIVE! to taste, compare and pair these 2 iconic Chardonnays.
California classics Chalone and Chalk Hill are alter ego expressions of this amazing grape, worthy of comparatively tasting, and thoughtfully pairing them. Having been to both properties, I can see how the terroir differences show in the glass, and now you will too.
Even better is when you pair them, and I'm going to show you some super easy recipes to do it right. All you need is a skillet, chef knife, sauce pot & cutting board--see my picks below.
