Macari Reserve Chardonnay, North Fork of Long Island, USA

點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：1894

With 12 months in French oak, the Reserve Barrel Fermented Chardonnay is a rounder, more spice-infused Chard than Macari’s regular Estate Bottled offering. As big as it is, the nose is somewhat muted with soft notes of pear and yellow flowers and the palate shows more as a result of the oak (spice, toast) than the fruit. ——L.B.(7/1/2010)—— 85

The buttered toast-scented 1997 Chardonnay Reserve is soft and oily textured. Well-crafted in an international style, it offers flavors reminiscent of buttered and salted popcorn as well as loads of oak and white fruits in its opulent and pleasing core. Drink it over the next 2-3 years.Tel: 516-298-0100
