    Hanzell 2007 Ambassador's 1953 Vineyard Chardonnay (Sonoma Valley)

    Shows the dryness, acidity and tightly wound minerality of all Hanzell's young Chardonnays, but with a depth of citrus and apricot fruit that marks it as a reserve. It really warrants time in the cellar. Best after 2013, and should develop for several more years.
