Do you have someone in your entourage who prefers cocktails to a good glass of wine? No worries, we recently discovered the Kim Crawford’s Chardonnay-a favorite of our editor in chef. We also got our hands on an easy cocktail recipe to make with this wine. With its soft and enveloping notes, no one will be able to resist this cocktail (or this classic white wine). Cheers!
