We visited my daughter in Vt. last year and found a very good Peach Chardonnay. We
visited again 2 wks ago and wanted to buy more of this wine for ourselves and as gifts
for others but could not find it. We can’t remember the name or maker of this wine but it was purchased at The Vermont Store in Middlebury. We went to the store this yr. but they ddn’t have it. Any way you could assist us in finding this PEACH CHARDONNAY would be greatly appreciated..
Thanking you in advance

Kate, I contacted several wineries and I believe the one you tried was called Peach Blossum by Charlotte Village Winery. Fabulous peach flavors! I believe they still have some in stock – call the winery at (802) 425-4599. Cheers!
