Chardonnay represents a real value White Wine.

  • 1990 Joseph Phelps Scheurebe Special Select Late Harvest 93 Points

    Bought at wine Club Santa Ana for $9. Lovely nose of lemon, honey tea, peach, pear and nectarine but richer and promising lots of sweetness on the palate which it masterfully delivered, medium body, tremendous, sweet but balanced by acidity, lingered long after sipped!!
