always a joy to drink, the latest vintage of ddo's arthur combines richness and elegance in a seamless and fascinating whole. cucumber and melon, apple and pear fruit is the base, which expands into wet stone and mineral, then butter cookie. it's a one-wine seminar in how to make great chardonnay, expressing the acid-driven elegance of burgundy with some of the lushness of new world grapes. tasted even better on the second day.
