The 2006 Chardonnay, which is primarily from estate vineyards, is reminiscent of a top-notch Chablis. It exhibits aromas of crushed rocks, spring flowers, white currants, lemon zest, and a hint of citrus oil. Medium-bodied and crisp, with no oak in evidence, this is a beauty to drink over the next 3-4 years.
Previously recommended: 2004 Cabernet Franc (94), 2004 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve (94+), 2004 Merlot Reserve Mailbox Vineyard (91), 2004 Mernet Reserve (95).
