Barnett Vineyards
Sangiacomo Vineyard Carneros Chardonnay 2007
91 points | $32 | White
Ripe, lush and immediately attractive, this Chard offers rich tiers of pineapple custard, pear marmalade, vanilla, buttered toast, toasted coconut and Asian spice flavors. It's a strong, flamboyant wine that calls for equally strong foods, like lobster. - S.H.

Acacia
Sangiacomo Vineyard Carneros Chardonnay 2007
92 points | $40 | 484 Cases | White
Incisively fruity and long on ripe apples with a well-tailored trim of toasty oak in fine counterpoint, Acacia's Sangiacomo bottling is a deep and yet refined working that shows plenty of richness and substance while remaining exceptionally well-balanced. It is at once both firm and fairly full-bodied, and its combination of keen structure and impressive depth marks it as a Chardonnay destined for better cellaring, but only if its considerable near-term appeals can be resisted.

Acacia
Chardonnay Carneros Sangiacomo Vineyard 2007
92 points | $40 | 484 Cases | White
Deep and complex, with flavors that build on one another. The mix of ripe pear, melon, hazelnut and spicy toasty oak turns elegant and stylish on the finish, where a honey note appears. Drink now through 2012. - J.L.
