Heller Estates Chardonnay 2007 - $14



David: This chardonnay is light in color. Nose indicates minerals and pear. Lively but light in the mouth. Oak is subdominant to citrus and apple or pear. Has a long finish. The end is a bit hot (alcohol) in the throat and this effect gets accentuated as it warms as does the acidity. Keep it cool. I am less partial to citrus tastes in wine which affects the score somewhat.
Score: 3.6/5

Jessica: I don't remember this wine sufficiently to give it a very accurate score. But it was nice and I liked its caramel tone with fruit and nuances of vanilla.
