Wily Jack California Chardonnay 2008 8.99/750 ml.
Winery notes: "This is a pleasing and unpretentious wine showing fresh tropical and citrus notes joined by fragrant notes of apple and baking spices. The supple palate is laden with flavors of pineapple and bright lemon zest. The warm-climate ripe fruit marries nicely with the bright acidity from cooler regions, resulting in a wine with medium acidity that can be enjoyed on its own or paired with an array of foods."
Clos La Chance Central Coast Unoaked Chardonnay 2008 9.99/750 ml.
Winery notes: "This wine opens up with aromas like a tropical fruit salad - pineapples, guava and bananas dominate the nose. Hints of lemon grass and citrus rind as well. The flavors are concurrent with the nose—lots of fresh pineapple. Kiwi, lime and a hit of grassiness round out this very fruit forward Chardonnay. The bright acid makes this a wonderfully refreshing summer wine." This wine is part of the Hummingbird series. Winery price is $15. Frugal's regular price is $12.99. Save big for a limited time only!
Estancia Pinnacles Chardonnay 2008 9.99/750 ml.
Winery notes: "Light straw gold in color. Fresh pear and crisp apple aromas are accented by notes of honeydew with a touch of floral on the finish. Bright tropical notes and stone fruit compliment the vibrant nuances of citrus. Soft touches of toasty oak and cream accentuate the lingering, minerally finish."
Francis Coppola Presents Bianco 2008 6.99/750 ml.
Don't delay, this great price won't last. Bianco is 89% Pinot Grigio, with a touch of Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay. Winery notes: "Bianco Pinot Grigio 2008 is a light, crisp white wine that’s refreshing and versatile. Invite friends over and serve Bianco with appetizers, pair it with light lunch fare, enjoy it at dinnertime with seafood or simply pour yourself a glass to sip on a warm afternoon. Aromas: Citrus, passion fruit, and white blossoms. Flavors: Pink grapefruit, melon, and peaches."

St. Francis Sonoma County Chardonnay 2007 11.99/750 ml.
Winery notes: "Rich with notes of citrus, melon and vanilla, this Chardonnay is a fresh expression of the hand-picked classic varietal. Barrel aging adds a toasty oak complexity to the finished wine. Medium to full bodied, our 2006 Chardonnay has ripe fruit flavors, crisp high acid in the mouth, and a rich lingering finish."
Rodney Strong Sonoma County Chardonnay 2007 12.99/750 ml.
Wine Spectator rating is 89 points. Winery notes: "We barrel fermented about 70% of this wine, and aged that portion in barrel for 5 months, offering the wine a touch of brown spice and vanilla, while cold fermenting the remainder to maximize a fresh fruit-forward character. Bright lemon and apple aromas mingle with hints of toasty barrel complexity, and on the palate, pear and pineapple with spice and refreshing acidity will have you coming back for another glass."
La Javeline Vouvray 2008 14.99/750 ml.
Winery notes: "The Vouvray appellation, located to the east of Tours, covers 5,000 acres of vineyard 150 miles west of Paris. The Chenin Blanc variety thrives on the sunny plateau overlooking the Loire River. This wine is 100% Chenin Blanc. Tasting notes: Ripe fruity bouquet (quince, apricot) with overtones of nuts (almond) and acacia flower. Well balanced on the palate, soft with a slightly crisp finish. A straightforward refreshing version of Vouvray Chenin Blanc. Drink by itself or serve with fish and chicken dishes in sauce, or delicatessen meats."
Ferrari-Carano Alexander Valley Chardonnay 2007 18.99/750 ml.
Winery notes: "This wine is 100% Chardonnay, 100% aged in French oak barrels. The 2007 Alexander Valley Chardonnay is a delicious wine with floral and fruit aromas of orange blossom, citrus, pear, figs, green apple, and a hint of toasted marshmallow and caramel. Generous on the palate, creamy vanilla undertones balance layers of toast and spice on the finish." Regular price is $23.99.
Foxglove San Luis Obispo Chardonnay 2007 14.99/750 ml.
Robert Parker gives this Chardonnay 90 points. Tasting notes: "Perhaps the great value in Chardonnay in the marketplace today, this wine, made by the highly talented Varner Winery in the Santa Cruz Mountains, comes from fruit accessed in California’s Edna Valley. With malolactic blocked but with lees stirring, this 25,000-case cuvee provides terrific notes of tropical fruit and poached pear in a fleshy, medium-bodied style with obvious minerality and precision. This is a remarkable effort that is fresh, lively, and best drunk over the next 1-2 years."
Cakebread Chardonnay Reserve 2005 69.99/750 ml.
Winery notes: "Reserve Chardonnay 2005 showcases vibrant Granny Smith apple and spiced pear aromas, with undertones of melon and citrus. With airing, a pronounced creamy tone emerges, along with enticing scents of warm baking spices and toasty, spicy French oak. On the palate, a rich, creamy texture introduces concentrated, beautifully structured apple and melon flavors augmented by luscious butterscotch and savory, toasty oak tones, leading to a long, multi-faceted finish featuring subtle baked bread, mineral and citrus notes. Delicious to drink now, this luxurious, complex, finely structured Chardonnay will gain additional richness and complexity with another 5-8 years of bottle age."
