2006 Basignani Chardonnay

Cost: $15.75 (from the vineyard)

Tasting notes: A smooth Chardonnay with a lot of French oak coming through. Hints of vanilla and honey, apples and melted butter add to the depth of this Maryland-grown white.

Pair it with: We’re in Maryland: How about a rockfish entrée and some crab cakes? A spicy chicken dish will complement—and be complemented by—this Chardonnay, as well.

Uncorked: At Basignani Winery. Available city-wide at Bin 604, Chesapeake Wine Company, North Charles Fine Wine and Spirits, Spirits of Mount Vernon and The Wine Market. Available on wine lists city-wide at The Blue Sea Grill, Corks, La Scala and Phillips Harborplace. (Prices may vary.)
