Note di degustazione
Light gold. Meyer lemon, pear and iodine aromas offer striking clarity, turning smoky with air. Tightly wound citrus and orchard fruit flavors gain flesh and depth with aeration, picking up honey and sweet butter qualities. Impressively balanced, complex and spicy, with great finishing lift and thrust. I'd bet on this improving for at least the next five years.

Readers looking for a grand cru Chablis-styled California white should check out the 2005 Chardonnay Lorenzo Vineyard. Sensational notes of lemon, citrus blossoms, wet stones, orange rind, and guava as well as an unmistakable minerality are followed by a wine of great ripeness, purity, and full-bodied power as well as length. Despite the fact that it was aged in nearly two-thirds new French oak, the wood is impossible to discern in the wine’s aroma and flavor profiles. It should drink well for 3-4 years. Tel.
