I long shorting 'of history; m which takes a bottle of wine – Chardonnay for my mom for Christmas. It has to be German and I do not know anything about wine. I know that she likes the area as thick cheap home Franzi of Benziger and Sutter. She was a fan of white zin. Can you suggest a good German Chardonnay along those lines? Thank you … Merry Christmas!

    Try a Sielsberg Kabinett 1975

    Um, Germany is not really known for Chardonnay. France and California are. I’m sure there are some from Germany that are decent.

    Germany is really known for Riesling and some other wine that I can never spell -Gewerztraminer or something.

    First thing is, Germans don’t typically grow Chardonnay.

    If you are looking for German wine stick with something in the Riesling or Gewurztraminer family. If you really want Chard, try California.
