The Russian River Chardonnay from Frei Brothers, like most wine from Russian River, Sonoma County, California, is a real winner. It is big, rich and full of bursting ripe fruit, which is suitable for a variety of dinner fare.

The flavors smack of green apple and ripe pear, with a citrus background, and a pleasing crisp finish. There is also a touch of vanilla and butter, as you relax in its elegance. The alcohol content is 13.9% and Norm's score is 89.

We sampled this lush Chardonnay with Jumbo "Shrimp from the Barbie", but the wine knows very little limit to its pairing with most seafood and fowl.

score: 89
price : $14 - $18
