Another great chardonnay release from the master David Ramey. Get some while it's still available. 92 Points Robert Parker: Ramey’s Chardonnay Sonoma Coast is laced with lemon, pastry, crushed rocks and mint. Beautifully delineated and focused, it stands out for its energy and verve. This is a gorgeous entry-level offering. Anticipated maturity: 2013-2016...Once again, I tasted an amazing range of wines with David Ramey. The Chardonnays capture a beautiful middle ground of ripe, California fruit but treated to a long, Burgundy-inspired elevage that relies on natural yeasts and no filtration, among other choices, to bring out the personality of each of the sites Ramey works with. To me, the Ramey Chardonnays have a Chassagne-like richness that is quite appealing, yet they remain laid back in style by California standards."

I always love the balance in this wine. Lots of malo goodness but backed up with enough acidity. A few years in bottle has been good for it.

Great Chard for the $$$. More citrus than RR. Fun side-by-side tasting.

Enjoyed this one quite a bit. Definitely Cali chard with bright notes of citrus and some popcorn. Very very nice.
