點擊次數(shù)：8526

The brilliant 2007 Chardonnay, which comes from the Star Vineyard in Rutherford, reveals a light greenish/gold tint to its color in addition to a beautiful bouquet of honeyed lemon blossom, citrus oil, nectarines, and oranges. Good acidity, medium to full body, and a youthful but promising personality suggest it will evolve nicely for 5-7 years. Founded in 1871, this historic winery continues to produce just two wines, a Chardonnay and a Pinot Noir.Tel. (707) 963-3632; Fax (707) 963-1647

Shows the herbal, sweet green pea quality that often marks Chards from the central Napa Valley, but that gives it an interesting twist. Otherwise, you’ll find tropical fruits, cream, buttered popcorn and zesty acidity. ——S.H.(12/1/2009)—— 87
