Hey fellas, this might sound weird but I need something for a seminar I am presenting: a truly sweet Chardonnay. Can you recommend one? The sweeter the better.

I knew this would happen--don't nobody believe me?
Thanks Bucko, but I seek is a general Chardonnay that is supposed to be a regular dry wine, but actually contains residual sugar, along the lines of the old Glen Ellen (does that still exist).

e.g. K-J Vintners Reserve.

Another one for you that is distributed widely:
2000 Corbett Canyon Reserve. It has 0.6% RS.

I tested Napa Ridge Coastal Chardonnay 1998; comes in at about .75 %.

Scary but I was thinking KJ vintners reserve, and then low and behold, I was not alone.
Vendage would be another beauty.
