    Sebastiani 2000 Chardonnay (Sonoma County)

    Inexpensive, but an odd wine. It has peach flavors, with the vanilla and creamy overlay of barrel fermentation and oak aging. But there's a funky quality that may come from the use, for the first time at this winery, of wild yeast. The aroma and finish both have off notes.
