93 Points 2009 Talbott Chardonnay, Sleepy Hollow Vineyard

“As always with this vineyard, the wine is superripe, almost overripe, with extracted pineapple, pear, nectarine and peach flavors that are impossibly ripe. New oak adds even richer vanilla, carmel and buttered toast notes. Great acidity and a firm minerality fortunately balance all this flamboyance, but it’s still a pretty powerful Chardonnay. Drink with rich lobster, scallop and tuna dishes. Typical Talbott Sleepy Hollow Vineyard, ultraripe, exotic, oaky.” Steve Heimoff Wine Enthusiast - Click here

Wine of the Week 2009 Talbott Chardonnay, Kali Hart

“Kali Hart is Talbott Vineyards' second label. Hardly a second in taste, its pedigree is the famous Sleepy Hollow Vineyard in the Santa Lucia Highlands of Monterey County, California. Talbott chardonnays are world renowned, so to get juice from these vineyards at an affordable price is a steal. This wine is layered with apple, pear and light oak spice. The mouth feel is bracing and balanced, with juicy bright fruits running from apple-pear to citrus. Lengthy and complex, it satisfies on so many levels. Perfect with any roasted bird you can imagine.” Michael McVittie Anchorage Daily News - Click here
