The best of the Concha y Toro Chardonnays is the 2006 Chardonnay Amelia. Medium straw-colored, it has a floral, mineral, stony bouquet with notes of white peach, pear, and tropical fruits in the background. Already complex with all elements in harmony, this lengthy effort could easily pass for a Grand Cru white Burgundy (but at a fraction of the price). Importer: Banfi Vintners, Old Brookville, NY; tel.

Stylish but persistent, with apple, pear and mineral notes that race along a bright, fresh frame. Solid length. Drink now through 2009. 2,000 cases made, 380 cases imported.??–JM??Region: Chile / Aconcagua / Casablanca Valley Select to Add

Toast, coconut and pineapple all work the bouquet. It’s zesty and healthy on the palate, with pear, coconut and baked apple flavors. Much less oaky than in the past, yet still endowed with a lot of coconut and vanilla. A very nice wine that runs ripe and sweet, as evidenced by the 14.5% alcohol.——M.S.(9/1/2008)—— 88
