| Mueller "LB" Russian River Valley Chardonnay 2006 (93Pts) Russian River, California  |
Product Notes: 2006 Mueller "LB" Russian River Valley Chardonnay has smooth and creamy, with a minerally edge to the ripe pear, apple and melon notes that are tight and focused, with a touch of mineral, anise and spice. Has excellent length. Drink now through 2012. 941 cases made."
(Mar 31, 2008) From Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar: "Light, bright gold. Ripe melon and peach aromas are complicated by floral honey, sweet butter and toasted nuts. Round and sappy, offering sweet honeydew and pit fruit flavors and a gently pliant texture. Finishes with broad tropical fruit and melon flavors and decent persistence." (May/June '08)
