Rodney Strong Chardonnay Chalk Hill Reserve 1998

Sonoma County, California, United StatesAnother winner from the pathetic soils of Chalk Hill vineyard planted during the late 1970s. Delicate pear, apple, floral, lees and vanilla aromas with background notes of anise. Lighter, more delicate structure with very crisp apple, citrus, spicy mineral flavours. Tight finish with lees, mineral, citrus highlights. Not big, but elegant and very fairly priced.Tasted: 01 September 1999Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
