The 2012 Filipponi Ranch Chardonnay comes from Paragon Vineyard, a small lot found within Edna Valley Vineyard in the heart of San Luis Obispo. The small but fertile Edna Valley produces a range of wines with the complex flavors associated with a cool-climate region. Bright golden in color with excellent clarity, this Chardonnay boasts aromas of tropical fruit with hints of vanilla and toast, a classic profile for an Edna Valley Chardonnay. On the palate are flavors of ripe pineapple that give way to a creamy, buttery mouth feel.

Vegetable Bulgur Stew
The versatility of Chardonnay as an accompaniment to food depends entirely on the acidity (tartness) of the wine. The David Bruce 1991 Chardonnay is a perfect example of a palatable wine suitable for a range of dishes, including this rich and savory bulgur stew.

Michael's Cornish Game Hens
This cornish game hen recipe is another great one from the Micheal Pozzan Winery. Covering the hens in an amazing apricot glaze gives the dish an extra sweetness that pairs wonderfully with the savory mustard. Try a glass of Chardonnay with this meal.
