Ridge Montebello Chardonnay 2004

Santa Cruz Mountains, San Francisco Bay, California, United StatesAlways a barrel selection of the best lots and it's not made every year. Spicy, citrus rind, ginger, honey, butter. White floral aromas with a touch of baked pear and muscat. Fat, rich, round, moderately elegant style with good acidity but a soft edge. Pear, honey, butter, vanilla, cedar, citrus, mineral, ginger flavours. Good finesse and length if a bit fat given its Burgundian mantra.Tasted: 30 July 2007Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
