  WINE RECOMMENDATION
I have always liked the marriage of chicken and Chardonnay. Nowadays there are so many great Chardonnays, from California, from Australia, from New Zealand and Chile and, of course, from France. The wines from Pays d'Oc in the South West of France offer some remarkable bargains. Just look for the varietal on the label. Or come home to California. One of my favorites has always been Robert Mondavi and his wonderful Chardonnays. They're easy to find and, given the price of good White Burgundies, are relatively inexpensive.
