Tasting Notes - Riverstone Chardonnay

Name: Riverstone Chardonnay
Producer: J. Lohr Estates
Region: Arroyo Seco, CA

Overall Rating:  ★★★☆☆

Pairing:  I'm not usually a fan of California Chardonnays, but this was very drinkable.  The oaky-ness was relatively moderate, so it complimented (and didn't overpower) our tortellini with roasted mushrooms and romanesco.
