2009 ブリュワー・クリフトン シャルドネ スウィーニー・キャニオン
|
94 points, Stephen Tanzer's
December 2010
Bright yellow. The most high-pitched and mineral-driven of this year's chardonnays, displaying scents of chalk dust, lime zest, lemongrass and green apple, with a potent floral quality that gains strength with air. Strikingly concentrated and pure, with intense citrus, mineral, smoky lees flavors and notes of honeysuckle and jasmine. Really stains the palate, finishing sappy, focused and with superb persistence. I'd give this another couple of years of bottle age but wouldn't feel guilty drinking it now. —Josh Raynolds
ワインメーカーノート
2009 Sweeney Canyon chardonnay 3,456 bottles produced
This release marks the fourteenth consecutive bottling of this unique and 30 year old site with which we have
worked since our inception in 1996. Planted on its own roots in 1980 to a Wente selection and dry farmed in a
mixture of river silt and diatomaceous earth.
Aromas of stone fruit, white flower and dried pineapple followed by flavors of passion fruit and young fig. Relatively stern
and tannic in the mouth with lingering persistence.
