The 2010 Baron Herzog Special Reserve Chardonnay is creamy with a toasty vanilla character from oak aging. Beautifully balanced with notes of pear, citrus and nuts. Soft, round and ripe. Mevushal.

Winemaker notes: "I believe this is going to be a great wine...it already is!" That's what winemaker Mike Chelini says about the 2010 Chardonnay vintage. As always, it is pale straw in color. Its aromas carry a distinctive minerality backed by green apple, Muscat and lemon zest. The mouth feel..

Cellar/Tasting Notes
From an extraordinary California vineyard, the Talbott Sleepy Hollow deftly combines ripe, core fruit flavors with sweet oak nuances; lasts long and lustfully on the palate and into the finish.

Cellar/Tasting Notes
