Chateau Ste. Michelle, Chardonnay, Horse Heaven Hills 2005

Light yellow.

Popcorn/truffle/sulfide/meal/lemon nose. Nothing fat or oaky here.

Intense truffle/sulfide, popcorn and lemon flavors with mineral/acid chew. Good length. This reminds me of much more expensive stuff from the Sonoma Coast, even Chablis.

Day 2 - Nut paste/sulfide action on the nose. Broader in the mouth and a bit abrasive too. Still, this provides a great mini-version of far more expensive action.

$20 PFG, especially for the $$.
