2009 Patianna Estate Vineyards Chardonnay, Mendocino, CA, $16 (S) – Rating 90
An excellent value Chardonnay that should cost more. Patianna’s certified organic estate vineyards produce a rich wine with a ton of flavor and acidity. Sur lie ageing and a bit of oak create a round lush mouth-feel without adding a stick of butter. Crisp flavors of apple, pear, peach, tropical fruit and vanilla.

Kathy… actually this is a review of the Chardonnay… SB to come! Thanks!
Patti brought some of this Chardonnay to our 40 year High School Reunion and I loved it, so far I have been unable to find it in retail stores in Lake County any idea where I might pick up a few bottles without paying shipping charges?
