The 2007's light straw color is followed by subtle oak notes, good structure and a sense of tannin to the wine’s profile. Exuberant aromas of citrus oil, orange peel, lemon blossom, green apple and a hint of pineapple are followed by a full-bodied Chardonnay with great fruit and length as well as the elegance, finesse and restraint that seem to be characteristics of a Talley wine. This 2007 should drink well for 10-15 years.

Dramatic and unctuous, displaying Rosemary’s usual complexity and intensity. In this fine vintage, the ripe grilled pineapple, peach tart, creme brulee, buttered toast, honeysuckle and mineral flavors are accompanied by fine, crisp acidity that brightens and lifts the richness. Very rich and elegant. Drink now–2010.——S.H.(12/31/2009)—— 93
