Benziger Chardonnay Reserve 2000

17^¼/20

Carneros, Sonoma County, California, United StatesBenziger chardonnay vines are getting old (26 years average age) and that's good news for wine lovers. Look for buttery, vanilla, spicy lees flavours mixed with mango, tangerine and floral, chalky, melon highlights. The textures are rich and round but elegant on the palate. More chalky, mineral, citrus pineapple, flavours streaked the toasted vanilla finish. Fresh, delicate and full of finesse.Tasted: 10 March 2003Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
