Late winter/early spring must be Chardonnay season, because there’s been so much of it recently. This Eight Legs Chardonnay is different because it’s blended with Semillon, which is traditionally a sweet dessert wine. Combined, the two create a very fresh, medium bodied wine that’s perfect for seafood. (Try it with king crab dip.)
