title: Clos du Bois 2000 Reserve Chardonnay (Alexander Valley)
description: A rich, oaky wine easily as good as Chards that cost far more, it has aromas and flavors of ripe white peaches and Delicious apples, and scads of oriental spice. Avoids excessive sweetness, although oak tannins and glycerin make it round and soft. —S.H.
