Derbes 2006 Chardonnay (Carneros)

  1. $36
Very rich, ripe and oaky, but something of a fruit-oak bomb. Blasts the palate with pineapple jam, toasty meringue, caramel and buttered toast aromas and flavors. Lacks subtlety.  — S.H.  (8/1/2010)

  1. $47
There’s a streak of green mint that cuts through the cherry and cola flavors, leaving behind a sharp hit of acid. Doesn’t seem likely to develop with age, but good for its dry silkiness.  — S.H.  (2/1/2010)

Tastes vegetal and tired. The wine is losing its pineapple and pear fruit, and there’s not much to replace it except alcohol and oak.  — S.H.  (8/1/2010)
