New trend in US Chardonnay production: US Chardonnay moving towards balanced, Burgundian styles. Introducing members to a French Chardonnay and an affordable Greek-style Cabernet as alternatives to heavy reds.
The wine industry has seen a shift in the production style of Chardonnay in the US, moving away from overly oaky and buttery wines towards more balanced and Burgundian styles. This change excites the speaker, who used to be critical of Californian Chardonnay, and he wanted to introduce members of his wine club to this new trend. He selected a Chardonnay from the Vue D'on Jean producer in Chateauneuf-du-Pape, France, as part of the club's offerings. Additionally, the speaker wanted to offer a white wine to complement the red wines and a more affordable Cabernet, and he chose a Greek-style Cabernet from Lodi as the house wine for the winter. The Chardonnay has a balanced nose with notes of vanilla, apple, almond shell, and green fruit. The speaker encourages members to fully engage their sense of smell when tasting wine to enhance their overall experience.
Personal preference in wine tasting and exploring different regions: Personal preference matters in wine tasting, and exploring various regions can lead to discovering high-quality wines at lower price points.
When it comes to wine tasting, personal preference plays a significant role. Some people prefer to drink their white wines chilled, while others, like the speaker, enjoy the flavors at room temperature. The Chardonnay discussed, a 2013 Chablis, has distinct high acidity with notes of applesauce, acorn, and fall residue, as well as nuances of seashell, limestone, and blue rock. This well-made wine will last for another 3-4 years and pairs well with salmon, black bass, poultry, and seafood. Another key takeaway is the value of exploring different wine regions and their price points. The speaker discussed his fascination with Lodi, California, as a place where high-quality wine can be found at lower price points than some other regions, such as Napa. He highlighted the success of Wine Library's Lodi Cabernet, called The Competitor, which he helped create and which has been a popular choice for the wine club at the $55 price point. In summary, personal preference and exploring different wine regions and price points are important considerations when it comes to wine tasting and selection.
