California One wine that will never be rated, nor see a top 100 list is the Chalk Hill RRV Chardonnay. That’s not a bad thing – it’s just the winery’s ‘secret Chardonnay.’ It’s never released to the general public or retail, only a few hundred cases are made each year to service the restaurant industry. But luckily for us, I’ve got a restaurant. And while the Sonoma Coast bottling is definitely the ‘calling card’ that you’re used to seeing from this great estate, I’m telling you the Russian River Valley Chardonnay blows that one out of the water. It’s a Nicholas wines all-time favorite. Must be ordered. Valid while supplies are available Buy this one by the 12pk for $15.00 per bottle
