90 pts. Stephen Tanzer’s International Wine Cellar: May/Jun 2009
Bright yellow. Intriguing scents of dried lemon rind, pear, smoked meat, pungent herbs and anise. Smells and tastes like an Old World wine, with impressive depth and powerful citrus and orchard fruit flavors complemented by herbs and dried flowers. Smoky hazelnut and macadamia notes carry through the sappy, gently chewy and surprisingly brisk finish. I’d serve this with a roasted bird or funky cheese.

The medium-bodied, Chablis-styled 2006 Chardonnay Brosseau Vineyard offers aromas and flavors of lemon oil, nectarine, and wet rocks. Drink it over the next several years.
