A punch in the face of a Chardonnay! The nose is floral and pleasant, but watch out for that bite.

Very very oaky wine. Lots of spice from that. Some light floral notes. Fine, but a total oak bomb.

Cool ocean breezes allow for a long, even ripening season, making Santa Barbara County an ideal place for growing Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. This Chardonnay is remarkably concentrated and complex.

Winemaker's Notes:

Notes on the Au Bon Climat Nuits Blanch Chardonnay 25th Anniversary Santa Barbara County 2005 : WINEMAKER NOTES: For his XXVth Anniversary, Jim has again has made a wine worthy of celebration a chardonnay that is youthful, powerful, multi-dimensional yet one that possesses the structured to gain complexity through bottle development. Fully ripened grapes (but not overly so), 100% new oak (not 200%), 20 months in barrel, unfiltered you get the picture.AU BON CLIMAT NUITS BLANCH CHARDONNAY 25TH ANNIVERSARY SANTA BARBARA COUNTY 2005
