2000 Vintage Testarossa knows how to make chardonnay and once you’ve tasted their wines you’ll be hooked — even if you’re not a chardonnay drinker. There is a depth of flavors layered with solid acidity and deft use of oak that I rarely see in California bottlings. The 2000 Sleepy Hollow Chardonnay smells of vanilla, spice and cream and bursts with ripe pineapple flavors. It’s stunning. New York Times - July 2002 90 points Intense, rich and concentrated, with a pretty core of anise-shaded cedar, fig and apricot. Well-balanced, long and flavorful, with vanilla-citrus notes on the finish. The Wine Spectator - June 2002 1999 V Vintage intage ***** Clearly, Testarossa is one of California’s top Chardonnay producers. This wine was native yeast fermented and barrel fermented and is richer still than the Testarossa Bien Nacido Chardonnay. It is full bodied, luscious and long on the palate, tasting of peach, pineapple, butterscotch, and lemon peel. Long finish. Ronn Wiegand’s Restaurant Wine August 2001 90 points Very bright and forward aromas of tropical fruits and lees introduce this complex wine. Very dry, it has a rich, creamy texture and a long, distinguished finish. Wine Enthusiast - December 2001 1998 V Vintage intage 91 points Completely focused on fruit but not at all sweet, this is a dense and meaty chardonnay. The ripe fruit remains firm, filled with rich flavors of white peach and touches of nuttiness. Smooth and lengthening out with air, this will be delicious with a blanquette de veau, or a veal roast with wild mushrooms. Wine & Spirits - February 2001
