One of Hollywood’s most beloved romances is this Cary Grant-Deborah Kerr drama from 20th Century Fox, a widescreen remake of the director’s 1939 film Love Affair. Grant and Kerr’s sophistication and sentimentality are brilliantly echoed in The Creamery’s notes of ripe apricot and soft honeysuckle. Grab a glass of this rich Chardonnay – and some tissues – for an unforgettable romantic adventure.
THE WINE
THE REGION
THE GRAPE
Chardonnay is the world’s most popular white grape, due to its attractive, mouthfilling flavors and ability to grow well in a range of climates. It performs most majestically (and expensively) in the vineyards of Chablis and Côte d’Or in Burgundy, but it also thrives in California. Depending on the site (and the ambitions of the winemaker), it can be refreshing and citrusy or rich and buttery, like The Creamery.
WITH FOOD
Full-bodied, rich and wellbalanced – The Creamery is incredibly foodfriendly. We love it with creamy pastas, which can make for an easy and elegant meal when you’ve got company coming. Try a simple pasta alfredo (toss cooked shells with Boursin cheese, fresh peas and crispy pancetta). And cheese lovers: this wine’s calling out for a few slices of Brie!
