Rosemarys Vineyard Chardonnay, Talley Vineyards

Note:

”Talley’s Rosemary Chardonnay is my favorite Chardonnay from the Arroyo Grande AVA. Sometimes, I think it is my favorite from anywhere. When you consider that Chardonnay is made all over the world, that may be saying a lot.  Maybe it’s the sea. Perhaps. I’m sure it’s more nuanced than that. Either way we have been buying this wine for more than a decade”.  Voila.  Meanwhile; my own notes of last summer read: ‘Taut, lacy, stoney, long.  Pineappley. Lemon Sherbet and orange.  Limey acidity.  Salty-saline and waxy.  Flavoursome.  Really delicious stuff.  Racy and long’.  This is a joyous wine, that deserves to be sipped in the sunshine.  Really inexpensive for this extremely high quality.  Whenever the sunshine returns….  I think this can be a ‘now’ wine or a ten-year+ wine equally well.
