It’s Friday and time to unwind. Let’s open up a mellow Chardonnay to pair with dinner for a wine night in!
- Open a bottle of the Chardonnay Sonoma Coast, about $20 from Total Wine
- Play the Mavericks essentials playlist, as smooth and mellow as this Chardonnay
- Cook a roasted pork tenderloin with apricot chutney, which will complement the fruit notes in the wine

Chardonnay Sonoma Coast at Total Wine | Wine Notes: “Aromas of red apple and ripe pear meld with hints of honeysuckle and orange-peel and a bit of toasty marshmallow. A bright entry gives way to a creamy, rich texture with extended notes of caramel and Macintosh apple, and a long, clean, juicy finish.” Rated 91+ by Wine Advocate.
Cheers, y’all!
