1
Prepare honey syrup
If you don't have honey syrup ready, combine equal parts honey and hot water (for this recipe about 1/4 oz honey mixed with 1/4 oz hot water), stir until fully combined and cool slightly.
2
Chill glass
Place a white wine glass or large stemmed glass in the freezer for 5 minutes or fill it with ice water while you prepare the cocktail to chill it, then discard the ice water before pouring.
3
Build the cocktail
In a mixing glass or cocktail shaker filled with ice, add 0.5 oz fresh lemon juice, 0.25 oz honey syrup, 0.5 oz Aperol, and 2 dashes orange bitters. Stir briefly (10–15 seconds) to mix and chill the sweeter, heavier elements.
4
Add wine
Strain the chilled mixture into the chilled wine glass over fresh ice (about 1/2 cup). Top with 6 oz Kendall Jackson Chardonnay, pouring slowly to avoid excessive foam. Give the glass one gentle stir (3–4 rotations) to integrate the wine with the pre-mix.

5
Float or place the thin lemon wheel on the surface of the wine cocktail and optionally tuck a mint sprig alongside the rim for aroma. Serve immediately with a small cocktail stirrer or straw.
