Wente Riva Ranch Reserve 2004 Chardonnay, Monterrey, California
This is domestic chardonnay at its best. An incredible bottle of wine for the money, it drinks like a $30 bottle, at half the price. It is rich, ripe, and opulent, with notes of flan on the front of the palate. Developing on the mid-palate are flavors of lime zest, pineapple, and ground nutmeg. The finish offers creamy notes of caramel. Exceptional chardonnay at a modest price.
