1998 Beringer Vineyards Sbragia Limited Release Chardonnay Napa Valley

Vinous Media (VM)

Pale gold. Musky, truffley aromas of dried and exotic fruits and honey. Lush, full and stuffed with fruit; a step up in richness and sheer depth of flavor from the Private Reserve, and much less simply fruit-driven than the Napa Valley release. Very long finish hints at caramel and vanilla oak notes.
