Wine Details
Price:
$20.00 per bottle
Description:
The Mt. Eden clone of Chardonnay has a significant impact in the rich quality of this estate grown wine. This unique clone of Chardonnay was brought to the Santa Cruz Mountains in the 19th Century by Paul Masson from the Corton-Charlemagne Vineyard in Burgundy. To this day this clone remains almost exclusively in the Santa Cruz Mountains. The Mt. Eden clone Chardonnay lends itself quite well to the cool, marine influenced, climate of the Santa Cruz Mountains. Ripe tropical fruit abounds in the 2001 vintage. Full, rich and supple, the flavors linger to a smoky sweet oak finish. Firm natural acidity gives the wine structure to allow for cellaring. This vintage is one of the best to come from Regan Vineyards and the wine is expected to age gracefully for 3-5 years.
