2004 Chardonnay
Winemakers Comments
Vintage 2004 yielded many highly regarded Chardonnays in northern California. The Mayacamas version has a bit of fresh lemongrass character in the nose and our usual light hint of oak. Those facets are complimented by a tart, steely structure in the mouth, followed by faint pineapple nuances. While highly enjoyable now it will, as usual for us, develop additional richness, viscosity and smoothness for several more years. I expect the peak for my taste will be in the 2010-2015 timeframe.
