Equipment

Recommended wine: Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Riesling

Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, and Riesling are my top picks for Chowder. 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 Talbott Vineyards Kali Hart Chardonnay. Reviewers quite like it with a 5 out of 5 star rating and a price of about 27 dollars per bottle.
Talbott Vineyards Kali Hart Chardonnay
Talbott Vineyards Kali Hart Chardonnay
A pure fruit expression of our vineyard, Talbott Chardonnay, Kali Hart is lush and lively. Minimal winemaker influence allows Kali Hart Chardonnay to showcases the strength of Talbott's estate vineyards. The rich, inviting nose shows bright tropical notes that continue on the palate, where refreshing flavors of pineapple and honeydew are complimented by refreshing acidity. A generous mid-palate leads to a long citrus and tropical fruit finish with hints of French oak and minerality.
