The 1994 Chardonnay Estate could easily pass as a top wine from Burgundy's Cote d'Or. It displays a subtle, impressively-endowed personality with smoky, earthy, buttery fruit in the nose, plenty of power, richness, and extraction, and a tightly-knit, young, unevolved, concentrated finish. It should age well for 6-7 years - atypically long by California standards. Tel. (408) 678-1717
