Item No. 95261
winemaker's notes:

The resulting wine is a perfect expression of Monterey Chardonnay. Aromas are expressive of ripe tropical fruits with notes of crème brulee. The palette is rich with flavors of apple, pear and exotic fruits which linger on the long, creamy finish.

90 Points

"Rich and layered, with a complex range of fig, citrus, green apple and hints of tropical fruit folding together. Gains depth, ending with a long, fruit-driven finish. Drink now through 2011."
Wine Spectator

"Fresh aromas of Meyer lemon and delicate vanilla. Zesty lemon, peach and apricot flavors with crisp acidity and a hint of toasted oak. An enjoyable Chard that is perfectly matched to shellfish."

Kosher wine
Kosher
A Kosher wine begins like every other - as grapes on a vine. Once they reach the winery for crushing, the wine is under strict rabbinal supervision.

Screw Cap wine
Screw Cap
Many studies report and winemakers agree that screw caps protect wine better and preserve its flavor more effectively than cork. More importantly, screw caps eliminate cork taint caused by TCA, a compound which develops in a small percentage of corks and ruins the taste of wine.

Organically grown grapes

About Professional Ratings
These wine ratings are based on a 100-point quality scale, and are selected by each publication's unique criteria. Some wine ratings are expressed as ranges. When this occurs we will list the highest score in the range and note the full range within the tasting note.

While ratings may influence your decision, the ultimate judgment is your palate.
