Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling

Chowder works really well with Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Riesling. Chowder can benefit from a crisp white to cut through the rich, creamy broth - or you can go big or go home with a rich, buttery chardonnay. You could try Sterling Heritage Collection Napa Chardonnay. Reviewers quite like it with a 4.4 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 17 dollars per bottle.
Sterling Heritage Collection Napa Chardonnay
Sterling Heritage Collection Napa Chardonnay
Balanced and complex, the Napa Valley Chardonnay layers fruit from several vineyards in the AVA, marrying the lush, bold ripeness of mid-valley with the richness and depth of Carneros. Bright, golden fruit opens the nose, rounded with notes of honey, caramel, baking spice and toast. A bold entry of lemons and ripe apple develops weight and viscosity as it evolves through the mouth. The barrel contribution leaves an almost-sweet almond impression across the finish.
