2000 "Silver Label" Chardonnay

2000 "Silver Label" Chardonnay Wine Details
Price:

Description: We have gone back and forth on the question of whether we want to make Silver Label a permanent part of our chardonnay line-up. We have decided that we will. In the past, the vineyard lots that might have contributed to Silver Label production went either to Gold Label in the best vintages or to White Label in standard vintages. Once in a while, we couldn't make up our minds and made a Silver Label! With increasing vineyard maturity and vine age (and with steadily improving vineyard management techniques), we have come to the conclusion that we should reserve certain vineyard blocks exclusively for Gold Label — and certain other blocks for Silver Label. As you will gather from this preamble, the wine has characteristics that are mid-way between the White Label and the Gold Label: the freshness and lively acidity of White Label, the richness and complexity of the Gold Label. The price is intermediate too!
