Note di degustazione
An unexpected addition to this tasting, the 2002 Chardonnay Hyde Vineyard is a real head-turner. Rich and lush on the palate, the 2002 blossoms with honey, tropical fruit, hazelnuts, and crème brulèe. Layers of flavor build to a striking crescendo of aromas and flavors in this stunning beauty. Today, the 2002 Hyde is simply fabulous.

Medium yellow. Knockout nose combines lime blossom, soft citrus notes, pear and white flowers. Sweet, juicy and penetrating, with highly complex flavors of soft citrus fruits, lime, peach, nectarine, flowers and mint. At once solid and vibrant. Finishes with palate-staining persistence and terrific grip. A great California chardonnay.
Softer and less interesting than the Russian River, but pleasant in a low-keyed style is the 2002 Chardonnay Carneros (4,800 cases). It possesses copious quantities of lush tropical fruits, medium body, and an easy-going character. Fax (707) 823-5620
