title: Chalone Vineyard 1999 Pinot Blanc (Chalone)
description: Very much in the vein of a super-oaked, ripe Chardonnay, bursting with peach and tropical aromas and flavors, but with a distinctly nutty, minerally, almost steely note and an electric jolt of acidity. Judging from the very long, sweet finish, it's got quite a life ahead of it.
variety: Pinot Blanc
