2004 Rex Goliath

[robr]

Vouv,

My problem I think is that I just like chardonnay in all its forms. I'm drinking the rest of the Saint Veran right now and I really like it, but I can't say I like it a lot more than I like the Rex Goliath, but I do notice it has more fruit in it.

I think it will take me a long time before I settle on a specific style of chard that I like more than others, or am able to say, as you did, that the wood is there to cover up the shortcomings. It's probably inexperience more than anything else that I have to overcome. I don't like excessive wood in cabernet sauvignon, but in chardonnay it does something different for me. I like it with, but I also like it without.
