Bid on this 6-bottle lot of 2009 Rochioli "South River" Russian River Valley Chardonnay (95RP, 94VN).

Greenish yellow. Smoky, leesy pear and nectarine aromas are complicated by notes of iodine and jasmine and turn spicier with air. Stony, chewy orchard fruit flavors are firmed by dusty minerality, which adds back-end cut. This is about far more than fruit, in an Old World manner. The iodine element recurs on the gripping, very long finish. I love this style of Chardonnay. (ST)
