點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：11005

The 2006 Blanco is 100% Chardonnay aged in French oak for 10 months sur lie with batonnage. It is light gold in color with a pleasing perfume of buttered popcorn, mineral, melon, floral, and tropical notes. This leads to a savory, dry, concentrated white with well-integrated oak, good depth, and a lengthy, pure finish. Whether it merits the hefty price tag is another issue. All of the new releases from Chivite Collecion 125 merit outstanding ratings.Importer: Peter Deutsch, Spain Wine Collection, Congers, NY; Tel. (631) 833-6102

A modern, ripe, full-bodied Chardonnay that sports an Australian personality and a bright gold luster. It’s richly buttered, with lemon, pineapple, green apple and cinnamon flavors. Creamy on the finish yet it holds onto its minerality. An atypical Navarran white due to its richness. ——M.S.(10/1/2004)—— 89
