“Recommended” - Wine Press Northwest - May 01, 2008 2005 Reserve Chardonnay Horse Heaven Hills
Hand-picked estate fruit from the Horse Heaven Hills, close attention from Ray Einberger and Keith Kenison, and 14 months of weekly hand stirring inside new oak barrels result in this rich invitation to Hotel California. Pineapple, citrus bloom, a hint of apricot, mineral and toasted oak aromas blend into flavors of apple s and more tropical fruit. Pleasing acidity gives way to a finish of butterscotch candy. Enjoy with a crab cake or try with popcorn.

Here is another fine effort from Columbia Crest that captures some spice and keeps the fruit bright and fresh. Apple and citrus flavors, sharp and tangy, run up again lots of barrel toast. The finish is loaded with baking spices and lightly touched with candied orange peel.
85 points - Connoisseurs' Guide to California Wine - May 01, 2008 2005 Reserve Chardonnay Horse Heaven Hills
Underplayed touches of smoke and grains overlie comparatively quiet fruit in both the muted aromas and slightly shy flavors of this mild-mannered Chardonnay, but the wine is kept on course by a smattering of fresh apples, and its slight sins are but those of omission.
91 points - Wine Spectator - April 30, 2008 2005 Reserve Chardonnay Columbia Valley
Smooth and polished. Offers a creamy mouthful of pear and carambola fruit infused with smoke and white pepper notes as the finish lingers delicately.
