The story

The story behind Monthaven

Monthaven is a value label, and we will tell you that plainly. The wines come in three liter boxes, which is the format that made this kind of Chardonnay popular: a sealed pouch inside a carton keeps the wine fresh for weeks after opening, far longer than a corked bottle. The style is the familiar one, ripe orchard fruit, a soft round middle, and modest oak influence, built to be poured without ceremony.

We have carried Monthaven for years because customers keep coming back for it. It is not a vineyard designate and it does not pretend to be. What it is, reliably, is a clean, generous Chardonnay at a price that lets you fill a cooler for a backyard party and not think twice. That is a real job, and Monthaven does it.

Buying guidance

Which Monthaven is right for you?

Three liters works out to four standard bottles, and at $21.99 that is roughly five and a half dollars a bottle. We are not going to dress that up. It is the kind of price that makes a box of Monthaven Chardonnay sensible for a graduation party, a boat, or a Tuesday when you want one glass and not a commitment to the rest of the bottle. The pouch keeps what you do not pour.

Monthaven cocktails and pairings

Chardonnay with a soft oaky edge wants butter and salt more than acid. Keep it cold and pour it with the plain things.
Good to know

Monthaven questions, answered

Is Monthaven Chardonnay oaked?
It shows a soft, modest oak influence rather than a heavy barrel character. Expect ripe apple and pear up front with a round middle and an easy finish. It is built for casual drinking, not for cellaring.
How long does boxed Chardonnay stay fresh after opening?
A sealed pouch inside the carton keeps out oxygen, so an opened box holds up for several weeks in the refrigerator. That is the main reason people buy the three liter format. A bottle gives you a few days at best.
How many bottles are in a 3 liter box?
Three liters equals four standard 750ml bottles. At $21.99 for the Monthaven Chardonnay, that works out to about five and a half dollars per bottle equivalent, which is the whole point of the format.
Can I get Monthaven Chardonnay delivered or pick it up?
Yes. We offer same-day or next-day delivery across Nassau and Suffolk, free local delivery over $250, and free curbside pickup at our Commack store. Order online and we will have it ready. Must be 21 or older.
What does Monthaven Chardonnay pair with?
Butter, salt, and simple food. Roast chicken, grilled shrimp, aged cheddar, or a spritz with soda and a lemon twist all work. Serve it well chilled and do not overthink the menu. It is a party wine.
