Flavor Profile
Airplane! is an iconic send-up of airborne disaster films. Bursting with inventive sight gags and outlandish slapstick comedy, it’s no less hilarious today—and maybe more shocking—than at its 1980 debut. What better wine to honor this landmark comedy than an equally delightful California Chardonnay?
This lovely white hails from Paso Robles, “one of the most dynamic wine regions in California” (Wine Spectator). Paso Robles has a warm, sunny climate that ripens grapes to perfection plus a long growing season, which gives the fruit plenty of time to develop complex, concentrated flavors.
Look forward to beautifully ripe yellow apple, pear and peach notes. With a smooth, yet vibrant, palate, this Chardonnay makes an ideal partner for white meats, seafood, creamy vegetarian dishes and more.
Order your share today. When it arrives, you might think, surely this Chardonnay can’t be this delicious. It is delicious...and don’t call it Shirley.
Classic Movie Pairing: Airplane! (1980)
With its slapstick antics and silly one-liners, this irreverent comedy set the standard for all funny films to follow. A send-up of disaster movies (in particular the Airport series), it relaunched the career of costar Leslie Nielsen and positioned writer-directors Jim Abrahams, David Zucker and Jerry Zucker as comedy heavyweights. Try not to spill this bright and lively Paso Robles Chardonnay while chuckling along with this film’s hundred-gags-a-minute.
