Grgich Hills, 2002 Chardonnay, Napa Valley

Grgich Hills is the first high end Chardonnay that I ever tasted. Mike Grgich is always consistently great. If you need to buy a good bottle of chardonnay and don’t know what to pick you are safe with this one, any year is good, and the wine holds up well over time. For Lisa’s birthday party in 2000 we had 1992 Grgich Chardonnay and it was great. The taste is apples, earthy and mineral, nicely balanced with a moderately long finish.
