About the wine
Rich and luscious, this white is some of Lodi's best, with the medals to prove it!
This is a crisp and zippy award-winning Chardonnay, full of endlessly refreshing tropical fruit flavors that will slip you into a delightful daze.
Evangelos has really mastered that balance of crisp and creamy, thanks to aging in a combination of stainless steel tanks and French oak barrels – so you get a little of that wood smoke and spice on an otherwise wildly fruity white.
Previous vintages of this wine have won BIG at award competitions (like the San Francisco Chronicle, where Evangelos earned a Silver last year!) get your hands on this trophy wine while it lasts.
Best before
Drink now or, if you're patient, age 1-3 years.
Serving advice
Serve chilled between 48-54 ºF.
Food match
Poached salmon with a buttery sauce, grilled seafood, shrimp scampi. Any mild buttery or creamy dishes. My favorite pairing for this is southern-style shrimp and grits. Delicious!
