Domaine Carneros Carneros Le Reve Blanc de Blancs 2004
|
Carneros. Once again, Le Reve emerges at the top of the ratings, and it is the wine''s impeccable adherence to the crisp, buoyant Blanc de Blancs style that puts it there. Its aromas offer a lovely mix of sweet citrus and creamy yeast components that combine both depth and appealing lightness, and they are followed on the palate by a perfectly appointed mousse and a refined set of rich, airy, pristinely fruity, stony, minerally flavors. Balanced and complex, deep and light at the same time, this one is about as good as it gets in Blanc de Blancs.

A ripe Chardonnay, with complex aromas of dough, vanilla, spice and hazelnut that turn rich and creamy on the palate, offering a mix of concentrated flavors with a measure of delicacy and finesse. Drink now through 2013.
