The 1997 Chardonnay Napa (3,300 cases) comes from three vineyard sources - Atlas Peak, Hyde Vineyard, and Caldwell Vineyard. Less Burgundian than the more mineral-dominated Sonoma Coast offering, this wine exhibits copious quantities of tropical fruit, full body, rich fruit, and a more direct, less complex, but satisfying, impeccably made style. It was bottled unfiltered This wine is best consumed over the next 1-2 years.This high quality producer owns no vineyards, but is obviously exploiting some of the finest sources for fruit on California's North Coast. There are 7,200 cases of sumptuous, Burgundian-styled Chardonnays that will be big hits with consumers. Tel. (707) 963-4142; Fax (707) 963-9713
