Streicker 'Ironstone Block' 2006 Margaret River Chardonnay

Eric Porres hooked me up with this Streicker chardonnay, from his personal cellar.  The wine is a bit on the green side, with slight asparagus notes, and a grassiness that is not often found in Chardonnay.  The acids are high and the presentation is crisp and clean -- a welcome departure from the oak and butter often found in California's chardonnay.   88 points
