Wow your back too.I think as the sidebar wine mod I will serve you both a glass of Chardonnay."It takes oak well, and many higher priced Chardonnays are typically fermented and/or aged in oak barrels. When Chardonnay is aged in oak barrels, it may pick up vanilla overtones in its aromas and flavor".
Thank you! I appreciate that. Well said! ;)

Sounds lovely...
For NYEVE, we tried a Sparkling Chardonnay - it was quite tasty.
