General Information
Weinstock Cellar Select is a spectacular wine exhibiting the finest characteristics of the grapes grown in this fertile region. The grapes were carefully selected from the Russian River area thereby displaying top notes of citrus with halyard notes of tropical fruit. In addition, as fermentation was in small barrels followed by aging sur lie, the wine has a rich mouth feel with a pleasing oak bouquet and flavor. Enjoy Weinstock Cellar Select with poached fish, light preparations of veal or turkey, or pasta dishes with light sauces.

I previously reviewed the 2002 vintage. 2003 has a light body. The flavor is buttery smooth, but nicely dry. Recommended.

Kinda dull and stinky. I think the aging on the lees went a little too far with overpowering yeast and oak flavors. The Herzog is cheaper and better.

Is it just me? The aroma reminded me of popcorn. Still, this is a light and tasety wine. I enjoyed it and recommend it.

This pleasant little chardonnay was aged "sur lie" [pronounced 'soor Leez'; French for "on the lees"], that is it was allowed to remain in contact with the dead yeast cells and small grape particles that form the sediment (or "lees") that accumulate naturally during fermentation. Usually the lees are separated out, but sometimes winemakers allow the wine to age “sur lie” in an attempt to further develop the flavor and complexity of certain white wines. This medium bodied white wine was aged in small oak barrels, and shows some very appealing if not altogether complex aromas and flavors of apple and citrus with hints of vanilla and butter. Simple but enjoyable. Drink now.
