This 2002 Hess Select Chardonnay is lively with an appealing balance of richness and crisp acidity. The wine is very fruit forward with ripe pineapple and lemon zest, backed by caramel oak aromas. The mid palate flavors continue with citrus fruit and good viscosity. Crisp acidity accentuates the finish that readies the mouth for the next sip. Try this food friendly wine tonight or over the next few years.
