Château Ste. Michelle Cold Creek Vineyard Chardonnay 2005
 |
|
BN#192712 |
This vineyard designate has fruit flavors of baked apples and lemon meringue in the nose and mouth. The winery used a slightly higher percentage of new oak because it gives this wine nicely integrated vanilla and toast flavors on the finish.
Wine Advocate
The 2005 Chardonnay “Cold Creek Vineyard” exhibits an assertive personality with its light gold color, toasty, mineral, butterscotch, and tropical fruit aromas and flavors. This leads to a viscous, mouth-coating, full-bodied Chardonnay that has enough power to stand up to full-flavored fish courses and light meats.
Score: 90.
