The 2000 Chardonnay Charles Ranch exhibits a surprisingly evolved color, and high acidity. It is somewhat monolithic, and the acids are poking through, giving it a tartness atypical for Martinelli. This was the last Chardonnay vineyard to be harvested in 2000, and perhaps it never achieved the ripeness of the other vineyards. Nevertheless, there is abundant fruit (candied citrus and apples) as well as a spicy quality. Drink it over the next 3-4 years. Tel. (707) 525-0570; Fax (707) 525-9463
