From a selection of the best barrels, the light gold-colored 2001 Chardonnay Cuvee Cathleen (6,396 bottles) offers aromas of brioche, buttered pear, honeyed citrus oil, and hazelnuts. Opulent, full-bodied, and thick, with superb density and richness, this sublime effort represents the essence of its varietal. Impossible to resist now, it will age for 7-9 years ... easily. Tel.
