1998 Kongsgaard Chardonnay Napa Valley

It does get the prize for the coolest label. The wine is very drinkable but not great, I expected great. This vineyard has been on the “To Taste” list for a long time. The wine is rough and simple, with not much flavor; the finish is short and out of balance on the acidic side. Not the stellar Burgan wine it's being sold as. 750 cases made. For the money you can do a lot better.
