Tasting notes
The sole Napa Chardonnay in this range, the 2018 Chardonnay Hyde Vineyard is ample and broad in feel. Apricot, tangerine oil, spice, vanillin and tropical fruit all show the richer, more extroverted side of Chardonnay to great effect. The Hyde is more power than finesse, and there is plenty of the former.

The 2018 Chardonnay Hyde Vineyard is elegant, with very pretty scents of saline, white blossoms, quince and hazelnuts. The palate is medium-bodied, satiny, layered and nuanced, with bright freshness and mineral character offering tension on the long, uplifted finish.
