The wine geeks pull out an 2011 East Coast Chardonnay and discuss how it compares to the Napa Chardonnay from the last episode.   Lamoreaux Landing is a beautiful winery with breathtaking views located in Lodi, NY. The winery is located on the eastern side of Seneca Lake in the New York Finger Lakes. The finger lakes continues to gain worldwide attention for high quality wines and is best known for Riesling. We found that after years in the bottle, the wine has held very well and remains clear, smooth and balanced. If you have it in your cellar its a great time to drink it. Overall, Lamoreaux Landing is worth the visit, producing high quality wines. Although the 2011 Chardonnay is no longer available, we have not tried a Chardonnay in the past 10 years that we would not recommend. The bottom line: This wine and wine maker are recommended by the East Coast Wine Geeks

EPISODE 160: Lamoreaux Landing 2011 Chardonnay

  We're back! In this week's episode, we talk about where we've been and the new Pennsylvania wine laws that will bring us into the 20th century wine-wise. We also look back on what happened the last time Pennsylvania tried to loosen up the laws a bit and gave us the Wine Kiosk. If you haven't seen our video State Store Vs. Wine Kiosk, have a look, its really very funny! Oh, and we enjoy this Napa Cellars 2013 Napa Valley Chardonnay. It was aged in a mix of French and New Oak, which allows the fruit to shine through with a beautiful oaky nose and subtle woodsy flavors.   Want to know more about the Pennsylvania wine law updates? Here's a good Q&A article explaining what the changes mean for PA residents: http://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/Pennsylvania-Liquor-Wine-Law-Changes-Governor-Tom-Wolf--382579901.html   Bottom Line: This wine is recommended by East Coast Wine Geeks
