Even better is the sensational 2007 Chardonnay Whitney’s Vineyard Estate. Its light straw/greenish color is accompanied by distinctive aromas of poached pears, honeysuckle, caramelized currants, orange blossoms, and nectarines. Full-bodied, elegant, and rich, it went through partial malolactic and was aged on its lees for a considerable amount of time, which added texture and length. (Not yet released) As it does elsewhere in northern California, 2007 appears to be a much stronger vintage for Bordeaux varietals at Fisher. Tel. (707) 539-7511; Fax (707) 539-3601
