Alma Rosa El Jabalí Vineyard Chardonnay 2005
Alma Rosa
It is a thing of ravishing beauty, brilliant, elegant, graceful, smelling of flowers, pineapple and lime zest. Sleek with crisp acidity. We'd pair it with chicken in rich, creamy sauces, or with fondue, or risotto with white truffles, or soufflés and other egg dishes.
Wine Advocate
The outstanding 2005 Chardonnay El Jabali Vineyard offers plenty of tropical fruit, peach, and honeysuckle notes, an excellent texture, medium to full body, and an up-front style. Drink it over the next several years.
Score: 90.

Here’s a good, rich white Burgundy-inspired Chard, creamy in barrel-fermented vanilla custard and opulant lemon drop mousse, peach pie and smoky pie crust flavors. Balanced and dry, it’s enriched with crisp, savory acidity.
