White of the Week


Another old favorite to kick off week 2 of my "Summer of Whites". Trevor Jones Chardonnay. Now this isn't just your average Chardonnay. This is a virgin Chardonnay. Yes, virgin. Virgin because, unlike most Chardonnays which are kept in an oak barrel until bottled, Trevor is an un-oaked Chardonnay, from Australia. I was introduced to this white, two summers ago, when I had the opportunity to work at the 5-star, Boston Harbor Hotel's outdoor Intrigue Cafe. I suggested it to most of my tables & everyone would thank me for introducing them to their new favorite. It's a wine that doesn't give itself away until its in the back of your throat. A buttery taste & feel. Characteristics of melon & passionfruit. You can find Trevor in most wine shops & I suggest that you do!
