Simi, founded in 1876, is one of California’s oldest wineries. Still located in Sonoma, where Giuseppe and Pietro Simi first made their wines, Simi makes a range of Chardonnay. This one, a blend from various sites within Sonoma County, delivers great value for the price. Thankfully, not overdone, its light to mid-weight style allows you to enjoy it as a aperitivo-like drink before dinner or with simply prepared seafood.
