I have made almost all the line of the cooler style wine and my best
pick will be the peach Chardonnay. I made the grapefruit for the
first time this year and bottle it yesterday. They really surprise
me, very nice, feel just a bit more acidic than most of the others. I
prefer the white variety over a sweet red as you mention with your bad
experience. Drink them really chilled and you can add some ice cubes
too.
