This is not the estate bottling, but it is also from Dijon clones, and almost as good. A solid effort, it sports clean, ripe fruit and zippy acids. There is less of the buttery softness of the estate Chardonnay, but plenty of crisp green apple, Japanese pear and even a smattering of papaya. Fine value. ——P.G.(4/1/2007)—— 89
