Publix Wine #1: Vinecol Chardonnay Organic

A few weeks ago I had just discovered, and taken advantage of, the fact that at Publix you get a 10% discount if you purchase eight bottles of wine.  I selected eight different varieties I was interested in trying, so when my friends, Brian and Keri, very graciously hosted me in their new home by serving roasted chicken, grilled zucchini, and rice pilaf I chose what I hoped would be a good pairing from my tiny collection.

The 2008 Vinecol Chardonnay (Mendoza, Argentina) was splendid on its own, and it complimented the grilled chicken flavored with fresh rosemary quite nicely.

Brian and Keri not only served a delicious dinner, but they loaned me their copy of Wine for Dummies.  As I have time to read the book I will share my findings!  Thanks guys!
