Creamy and layered, this offers complex aromas of ripe peaches, tropical fruit, almonds, lemon curd and pastry. Focused and balanced, with a full body and a dense, lightly phenolic texture. It’s vivid and energetic, leading to a long and seamless aftertaste. Solid and consistent. Drink or hold.

Score 94/100 · Drink 2024-2030, Joe Czerwinski, Wine Advocate, Oct 2024
Aged primarily in 25% new French oak from François Frères, the 2021 Chardonnay Larry Hyde is reminiscent of toasted grain on the nose, with hints of Honey Nut Cheerios, plus tangerine and pineapple-like fruit. It's full-bodied, round and generous on the palate, then tightens up nicely on the long, mouthwatering finish without ever feeling overly tart or sharp.
