Foley Estate Dierberg Vineyard Chardonnay, Santa Maria Valley, USA

富利酒莊帝伯格園霞多麗白葡萄酒

點擊次數：2042

The 1999 Chardonnay Dierberg Vineyard reveals an evolved light gold color, offering notes of ripe peaches and honeyed citrus. The wine is medium-bodied and compressed, with tart acidity. It will drink well for 1-3 years. I suspect acid freaks will rate this wine several points higher, as elevated acidity is de rigeur. That said, I enjoyed the purity and quality of its fruit, as well as the fact that it provides a refreshing taste.Tel. (805) 688-8554

This very rare, single-vineyard Chardonnay has distinct vanilla, golden delicious apple, banana and peach flavors—a nice mix of sweet and sour, but some tasters found searing acidity and a sharp metallic note. Finishes tart, dry and long with a bracing edge capable of cutting right through your fried calamari and spicy sauce. Only 132 cases produced.——W.E.(7/1/2001)—— 87
