Wine Wednesday Sonoma-Cutrer Russian River Chardonnay


 This was a lovely wine. Pale gold color, very bright nose. I smelled lemon merengue and almond blossoms with hints of candied apricots--all of which sounds very sweet. Obviously, the wine was not sweet, but the flavor was true to the scent all the same. There was a bright citrusy taste to it--very Meyer's Lemon-esque--along with dried apricot and just the faintest hint of bitter almond. 

I drank this with a meal of Clams Oreganata and Pasta al Limone, and it was pretty much perfect, IMO.
