Testarossa Castello Chardonnay 2000
Chardonnay
from Central Coast, California
winemaker's notes:
A handcrafted blend from five of the Central Coasts's finest vineyards, including Bien Nacido Vienyard and Clos Pepe Vineyard. Bright tropical fruit, with explosive flavors, creamy, rich, and fresh. Yum!
"A richly flavored yet elegantly crafted wine that's sleek and polished, with ripe pear, fig, honeysuckle and honeydew flavors that turn smooth and creamy, picking up subtle nutmeg and hazelnut nuances on the finish. Drink now through 2006. 2,466 cases made."
