As with the 2005 Buena Vista Merlot tasted recently, the Carneros Chardonnay was both surprisingly tasty and very well priced. Cool-climate feel to its fruit intensity and lively, crisp texture. Rich citrus and pear fruit along with toast and spice from the oak, which is not overdone. A bargain if you can get this wine for $14 or under.

while i agree that this wine contains flavors of crisp fruits....i also found this chard to be somewhat buttery and toasty as well. however, i say this as a positive attribute and think the wine is great for the price.

Wine Tasting NotesThis Chardonnay exhibits aromas of baked apple, pineapple, spice, nutmeg, roasted nut and caramel, continuing with rich flavors of broad apple and pear with a creamy mouthfeel. Chardonnay Clone 17 Robert Young grown in the cool climate of Carneros produces a wine that shows exceptional fruit intensity while maintaining great acid balance.

Wine Tasting NotesOur EVS clonal wines give us the opportunity to showcase individual clones or blocks that perform exceptionally well in any given vintage. This wine exhibits aromas of steely minerality, lemon drop, clove, pear aromas and subtle matchstick. The Dijon Clones Chardonnay continues with rich flavors of oily bright citrus, focused peach, mandarin orange and candied ginger.
