  • 2005 Littorai Chardonnay Mays Canyon - USA, California, Sonoma County, Russian River Valley (3/8/2014)
    Same great showing as before. Lustrous notes of orange blossoms, candied lemon peel, honeysuckle, ocean spray, and hazelnuts. A bit richer than I remembered but still balanced. A terrific example of California Chardonnay. (90 pts.)

Always my favorite of the Littorai Chardonnays. Heresy, I know.

90 Points? I certainly don’t want to pay $60-$75 dollars for a 90 point chardonnay. I mean, I like “French” style no oak or no malo chards but don’t these get better with age???

I had a very good experience with this wine at a restaurant several years ago - yum.

So was it 05 or 07? Just curious…I think both were good ripe vintages…
