The 2006 Chardonnay Estate is even better, with a fleshier texture, more honeysuckle, orange blossom, and poached pear, beautiful acidity, freshness, and length. This, too, should be drunk over the next several years.The Melville family has one of the top vineyards in the Santa Rita Hills, and the wines are made under the supervision of Greg Brewer and Steve Clifton. It is interesting that I found the Melville Pinot Noirs far less spice-dominated, with more blue and black fruits, than those of Brewer-Clifton. That struck me as unusual because the vineyards are often close to each other geographically, and of course, the winemaking philosophy is generally the same.Tel. (805) 235-7030; Fax (805) 235-5310
