Hints of lime oil, white currant, peach, and honeysuckle, all buttressed by terrific acidity, comprise the full-bodied 2006 Chardonnay Thieriot Vineyard. A cool-climate wine with some stunning acidity and nicely integrated wood, this is a beauty that should drink nicely for another 3-4 years. One would think Bruce Neyers has little time. After all, he is the full-time (or over-time) national sales representative for Kermit Lynch importing company. Yet Neyers also has an impressive portfolio of wines, some of which come from his own estate vineyards tucked away in the Conn Valley. His winemaker is none other than Turley Cellars’ highly respected Ehren Jordan. I thought this was the strongest line-up of wines Neyers has yet produced, although last year the tastings were nearly as good, so he seems to be on a roll. He has produced a very strong group of Chardonnays from a vintage that one has to be somewhat careful with given the problems with botrytis in many of the lower-lying vineyards. These are all pure, clean examples of Chardonnay.Phone: 707-963-8840; Fax: 707-963-8894
