This parcel of chardonnay is one of the most compelling that Brewer Clifton works with. Planted entirely to clone Mount Eden on a very elevated mesa in sandy, clay-loam soils overlooking the entire appellation.
Aromas of lemongrass, yuzu and roasted corn followed by flavors of passionfruit, ginger and wheat. Very weighty yet exhibits great finesse despite it power.

Untitled
"Offers a tight beam of flinty citrus, green apple and tart melon fruit. Keeps the focus on fruit, yet shows a twinge of alcohol. Drink now through 2010. Tasted twice, with consistent notes. 411 cases made. –JL
" -Rated 88, Wine Spectator
Untitled
"The 2005 Chardonnay Ashley’s represents the essence of Chardonnay with its notes of ripe pears, brioche, peaches, apricots, honeysuckle, and flowers. It is full-bodied and rich, with great acidity and depth.
" -Rated 94, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
