Winemaker's Comments: 2004 Frei Brothers Reserve Chardonnay
Russian River Valley, Sonoma's premier Chardonnay appellation, is the source of our Chardonnay grapes. With a soft mouthfeel and long crisp finish, this medium-bodied wine has bright aromas and flavors of citrus, pear, peach, and a hint of vanilla and spice.

Like Jim Carrey in "The Truman Show"
Having mashed grapes into fermented bevvies since 1890, Frei Brothers knows a thing or two about its craft. As such, their performance with this Chardonnay was professional and enjoyable.
But like Jim Carrey in "The Truman Show" (here's the hook!), the performance was good but not worthy of career-topping accolades.
Where exactly does that leave us? It's a great bottle and highly recommended as an opener to a great evening. Pair it with a Caesaer salad, oysters, or pretty much anything with cheese involved and you'll be glad you did. It's crisp, light, and versatile, but it falls just short of greatness.
