"Classic 95" Points
"This old vine chardonnay from the famed Sleepy Hollow vineyard launches forth with stunningly intense fragrance of smoke, honey, and ripe fruit soars from the glass (we could detect from several feet away!). This incredibly powerful, yet refined, complex wine, reveals concentrated flavors of tropical pineapple, savory green apple, crème brûlée, vanilla bean, hazelnut, and complex minerals reminiscent of a Corton-Charlemagne from Burgundy. This is a full bodied Chardonnay with admirable ripeness, a beautifully integrated acidity, and a long, rich, blockbuster finish. Delicious!" - The Wine Insiders

Attention fans of full throttle Chardonnay such as Pahlmeyer, Rombauer, or Cakebread: Don't miss the micro-production Sheldon "Old Vine" Chardonnay 2007, guaranteed to dazzle you with BIG, rich, smooth layers of tropical fruit, honeysuckle and complex minerality all wrapped around an elegant structure. Trust us, if you're a fan of big & rich California Chardonnay such as Rombauer or Cakebread you'll swoon over this higher rated, lower production "boutique" version of those big name wines. Only 8 barrels were crafted so order at least 6 because you'll be begging for more after sampling. One of the rare Old Vine Chardonnays in California, this unique wine will dazzle. Offered on a first come first serve basis.
