If you have tried their <strong><a href="http://www.essexwinereview.com/2009/01/aleksander-estate-chardonnay-2007/" rel="nofollow">Chardonnay</a></strong> you will know exactly what I mean. Like their <strong><a href="http://www.essexwinereview.com/2009/01/aleksander-estate-chardonnay-2007/" rel="nofollow">Chardonnay</a></strong>, the Vidal is a smooth, full bodied wine. It's has a semi-sweet citus taste up front followed by a long pear finish. Serve chilled to bring out the full fruit flavours of this vidal. Wanda and I didn't follow the wine maker's suggestions for food pairing. Instead dinner was beef tips from "<em>Applebee's To Go</em>" This worked great, the wine and the beef tips complimented each other for a nice dinner. Wanda and I compared notes on this vidal and both agree that it is another "Must Buy" from Aleksander Estate Winery. Serve it with dinner or chill it and sip on it by a fire. It's perfect for cocktail parties and wine and cheese parties. Aleksander winery seems to have a way of making smooth white wines.

Like their Chardonnay, the Vidal is a smooth, full bodied wine. It’s has a semi-sweet citus taste up front followed by a long pear finish.
