Of the two Chardonnays I tasted, both are close to outstanding. The 1995 Chardonnay Reserve offers a light golden color, an excellent, toasty, smoky, tropical fruit-scented nose, bold, rich, nicely-textured flavors, medium to full body, and a longer finish than the regular bottling. Nevertheless, I would also opt for drinking this wine over the next year.Tel. (888) 339-9463 Fax. (805) 934-3589
