- 1/3 cup lemon juice
- 1/4 cup creme fraiche (or sour cream)
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- Belgian endive spears from 3 large heads
- 1/4 cup chopped roasted, salted macadamia nuts
- Combine chicken, mango, celery, green onions, and tarragon in a large bowl.

- Spoon chicken salad onto endive spears, then sprinkle with macadamia nuts.
- Dry Creek Vineyard 2009 Wilson Ranch Dry Chenin Blanc (Clarksburg; $12). Honeysuckle and Meyer lemon aromas meet a rush of melon, apple, and citrus, with a tangy, limestone finish.
- Husch 2010 Chenin Blanc (Mendocino; $11). Shades of the off-dry Chenin we chugged in the '80s, only better, with pretty peach and almond blossoms.
- Pine Ridge 2010 Chenin Blanc + Viognier (California; $14). A Chenin at heart with a splash of Viognier; juicy peach, pear, green apple, tangerine, and a whiff of spicy jasmine.
