Barrel Burner Chardonnay
Oaked Chardonnay and a bourbon barrel Cabernet, stocked in Commack.
The story behind Barrel Burner
Chardonnay is the white grape behind the richest, most barrel driven wines in the shop. The California style is picked ripe and aged in oak, so it pours golden with baked apple, vanilla and toast rather than lean citrus. It is a fuller white built for roast chicken, butter sauces and anything off the grill.
We keep Barrel Burner Chardonnay and Barrel Burner Bourbon Cabernet here in Commack, one or two bottles at a time, so call ahead if you want to be sure of a bottle.

Bourbon barrel aging gives the Cabernet a sweeter oak edge.
Barrel Burner cocktails and pairings
Serve the Chardonnay lightly chilled, not ice cold, so the oak and fruit stay in balance.
