winemaker's notes:

Number 2 on the Wine.com 100 of 2007!

The color is a brilliant light straw with vibrant green hues. The bouquet possesses nectarine, peach and savory oak characters. The palate is clean and dry with tropical fruit flavors and a crisp zesty finish.

"Former Aussie rules footballer-turned-winemaker Rob (Sticks) Dolan, brought the wheel full circle when he (and others) bought, and renamed Sticks, the Yarra Ridge winery where he was once the winemaker. This is a great example of unpretentious Yarra Valley chardonnay style, fruit-driven with nectarine, honeydew and citrus, line and length its foundation."
-James Halliday

Buddha - Camden, NC (read all my reviews)
  Best I ever tasted - 6/12/2008
I would buy this wine again
Picked up a bottle in Australia after reading the reviews and they were dead on. This is one oustanding Chardonnay. The price for this wine was higher in Australia so all the better here. I couldn't recommend it enough.

  Outstanding value. - 4/23/2008
I would buy this wine again
Would be a buy at twice the price. Consistent and very drinkable Chardonnay.

Chuckles - Patchogue, NY (read all my reviews)
  Cute name, but not much more - 1/26/2008
I would not buy this wine again
The flavor seems well balanced but the body is missing from this wine. It tastes thin, not a very technical term but it's the best way to describe it. The screw cap is convienant, more wines should be using them.

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.
Green wine

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.
