Chateau St. Jean Belle Terre Vineyard Chardonnay 2008 Alexander Valley, CA

Suggested Retail: $27, We Bought a Bunch: $19.99

This is the best price I have ever had on this classic Sonoma Chardonnay...

What the Wine Critics Thought: Wine Advocate: 91 Points
The full-malolactic style is demonstrated by the 2008 Chardonnay Belle Terre Alexander Valley. Poached pear, white peach, apricot, and honeysuckle with a subtle hint of background oak are all present in this beautiful wine. Drink it through 2015.

What We Thought: Ripe pear and butterscotch frame the nose of this elegantly oaky California Chardonnay. The palate is viscous, rich and filled with ripe fruit flavors, accented by buttery vanilla and finishing round and soft.
