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. The Francis Ford Coppola Votre Sante Chardonnay with a 5 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 14 dollars per bottle.

Striking a lovely balance between sweet fruit, zesty citrus notes and a spiced vanilla finish, the 2010 Votre Santé Chardonnay delivers a delicate perfume of peaches, lemons, and spiced pears along with luscious flavors of apples, pineapple, and toasted vanilla.Goes well with blue cheese, fish and pasta.
