I think there's quite a lot of variation in the residual sugars in Chardonnay though, according to the different styles, so is it possible that you may have better luck with wine from a different maker/ region? If you could get one with a higher percentage of alcohol you might have more luck- the ones under 11% versus the 12%+ for example.
After extensive experimentation, (double-blind, drunk) I've found that 12% is the threshold for me. Prosecco, beer and cider are out, but everything else will only serve to reduce BG. I hope this is still the case when my honeymoon period ends, cos it makes everything a lot more bearable.
