Cookin’ on the Coast 2024 – Episode 01:
Unsworth Chardonnay w/Shawarma-licious Chicken Wrap
To kick off the new season of Cookin’ on the Coast, Shanyn Ward from Liquor Plus joins us with the 2021 Unsworth Chardonnay. This Chardonnay is dry and poised on the palate with an elegant integration of fruit. In the glass it reveals complex notes of spice, nutty and chalky minerality that make this wine a perfect match for Chef Heidi’s dish.
Head to a Liquor Plus liquor store near you to pickup this fresh and complex Chardonnay from Unsworth.
Paired up with the 2021 Chardonnay from Unsworth is Chef Heidi’s home-style version of the Chicken Shawarma Wrap. The juicy, flavorful chicken combined with bold spices and vibrant sauces make this dish stand out, requiring a wine that complements without overpowering.
In this episode of Cookin’ on the Coast, Chef Heidi and Shanyn Ward explore why this Chardonnay is the perfect match, discussing its fermentation process, the history of Unsworth, and more.
