  This is a very ripe Chardonnay, with pineapple, orange and apricot jam flavors. It's rich but not particularly subtle, with lots of new French oak.

  Sommeliers will love this Chardonnay for its lean, Chablis-like elegance. The lemon and passion fruit flavors stand alongside stony minerality and a leesy, sourdough bread tartness, while the brisk acidity makes the mouth water. Elegant rather than opulent, this gathers momentum…

  One of the leanest, most severe Chardonnays out there. In its favor is extreme dryness, elegance and a refreshing minerality. But the citrus flavors are so thin, there's just not much going on, and a little oak doesn't help. Simply lacks richness.

  A pure, young Chardonnay made in a Chablis style, but you don't want to drink it now. Shows the acidic minerality of Carneros, with citrus, tropical fruit, wildflower and honey flavors. Too tight and unyielding. Give it until mid-2010 to mellow.
