The 2008 Chardonnay Reserve exhibits hints of caramelized tropical fruits, a touch of clarified butter, and subtle oak. It is light gold in color, with a medium-bodied palate, tart acids, and a surprisingly short finish. These whites are a far cry from the classics that were made by the Mondavi family. Tel.

Lots of oaky richness in this detailed, highly enjoyable Chardonnay. It’s tart and savory in acid-tinged lemondrop candy, tangerine and Asian pear flavors, elaborated with sweet buttered toast. Elegant and upscale, a wine to drink now. ——S.H.(6/1/2011)—— 91

The 2007 Chardonnay Reserve reveals more hazelnut, oak, citrus oil, tropical fruit, and orange blossom characteristics. Although it is a good effort, it is not twice as good as the introductory Chardonnay, even though it’s priced twice as high. However, it should last 3-4 years or longer. I know there have been a lot of concerns about the huge Constellation empire running Mondavi, but these remain very impressive wines.Tel. (888) RMONDAVI
