This Trader Joe’s find strikes back against the notion that Chardonnay must be big and buttery. The $7 Rebuttel Chardonnay.
Chardonnay from California, including the Lodi and the Central Coast AVAs.
The Rebuttel Chardonnay is available exclusively at Trader Joe’s for just $6.99.
With its crisp and clean apple and pear flavors, beautifully balanced profile, and a subtly creamy finish, we humbly offer this bright and refreshing Rebuttel: A delicious and easy-drinking Chardonnay with just a hint of butter.
13.5% Alcohol
Today we continue on with our new string of Trader Joe’s picks with one for the Chardonnay lovers! The 2017 Rebuttel Chardonnay begins with fresh and clean aromas of apple, lemon and other assorted citrus fruits along with a touch of spice. Tasting the wine reveals more citrus and apple with some tropical fruit as well. It also features a round, smooth mouthfeel with good acidity. A dab of vanilla cream leads into the dry, fresh finish. This is just a good, basic, non-buttery Chardonnay at a really low price. It won’t blow your socks off but if you prefer the unoaked, less buttery style of Chardonnay this is pretty nice at just $7.
