Rita's Crown Chardonnay
Sta. Rita Hills, Central Coast, California, USA
Still alive after several days in the fridge and opulently racy. Is that a possible compound descriptor? Waiting for the meatloaf and potatoes to finish in the oven--might have to have a salad to start. Salad and soft boiled egg. I'll get right on that. 2010.

Blinded by some solid tasters as 1er-GC. Showing really, really well. Integrated and complex with room to run.

Spectacular. As usual it's right "on par" so to speak. :)

Jan 5th, 2014Thisnwas a spectacular wine, and quite memorable. If only all Cali chard could be like this. Bright acidity, great mouthfeel, subtle oak. The fruit was citrus driven and the wine had a delicious nuttiness to it. You can taste the burgundy inspiration, but it still tastes like California.
