Top CA 1999

[Bucko]

1999 Mount Eden, Chardonnay, Estate, California, $45, 2,771 cases. Yield was only 2.1 tons per acre for this golden-hued wine. Honeysuckle, citrus, butterscotch and pie dough notes evolve in the glass. Complex, very well balanced and elegant, California Chardonnay simply does not get much better than this. 92/91.
