Did you drink this in a restaurant? Because the winery says this wine is "restaurant-only." Did you buy this wine in a restaurant, or are you a member of the wine drinking elite, privy to special bottles?<br/>There is NO WAY a California Chardonnay that starts with the words "Sonoma Cutrer" deserves any accolades. It is a marketin machine that loves its own image, and you fell for it. You want a good CA Chard? Try Lioco Stuhlmuller. But please, PLEASE, never again give sophomoric props to Sonoma Cutrer...

One of the reasons I recommend your site to anyone suffering from ‘sophmore’s’ disease. That thing where they get a little wine tasting behind them and they think they’ve got it down where, really, they’re just in a rut.
