Silverado Vineyards Carneros 2017 Chardonnay, $17.98-$34.99, 89 points, poured a lovely light yellow/gold color while clearing at the rim.
Aromatic light dusty green grape, oak, hints of orange peel and honeysuckle were pleasantly complex.

Medium-bodied white wine with fair acidity delivered a rather oaky rendition of the aromas which lent itself a proper pairing with fried chicken, an okay pairing with my pasta and chicken in a creamy lemon sauce, but was disappointing with my sautéed fresh scrod.
Finished long on the trailing palate, a touch of white pepper, and a well-balanced 14.5% alcohol.
