HCOE chardonnay/what year???

[ccw]

When we were at WDW last month, we really enjoyed the feature Happiest Celebration chardonnay which was by Buena Vista winery...but i do not remember the YEAR. Anybody? thanks! (By the way, we had it at Kona and at Calif. Grill so i believe they might serve it at most table service places)

Chardonays are meant to be enjoyed young, so my guess is it's a 2001-2003.

I believe I read on a menu it was 2003

It is 2003. We had a bottle at the akershus dinner on our recent trip.

THANKS! I just bought a bottle at our local grocery store and look forward to enjoying it tonight (but doubt i will enjoy it as much as I did at Disney!)

Do you think my sons will be worried if they walk in and see me sitting at the computer at 11 in the morning with a bottle of chardonnay in hand? Oops...one of them just did! Anyway, the bottle I bought is BUENA VISTA Carneros Reserve 2003 Chardonnay. It's pretty good and I assume it is the same as the one we were served at DiIsney (but a little cheaper here! $12.99/bottle)

Thanks for your reply, I'll look for it at the store!

I am way bumping up this thread--- a friend of mine was just asking me about this Chardonnay... she had some at Garden Grill a few years back and was trying to track it down. Any chance of getting this up in NJ?

1) If it was the Ripple, it was a Tuesday vintage.
2) If it was Boone's Farm, it was a Monday vintage.
2) Unless it was Boone's Reserve, then the Thursday was best.
