The 2000 Chardonnay Marcella's Vineyard is reminiscent of a Louis Latour Batard-Montrachet. It manages to hide its 15% alcohol. The wine is full-bodied, with amazing texture, great ripeness as well as richness, and a distinctive minerality underpinning the fruit and texture. This is a sensational effort. This is a wine of two up and coming California superstars. Don't miss it. The talented Greg Brewer and Steve Clifton have admirably exploited the extraordinary potential that exists in selected micro-climates in Santa Barbara county. In a few short years, this young, energetic twosome have astonished this critic with the breadth and complexity of their wines. Tel. (805) 452-5609
