Note di degustazione
The 2018 Chardonnay Hyde Vineyard is more closed and reductive, with plenty of Burgundian matchstick notes as well as orchard fruits, toasted bread, spice, and chalky mineral nuances. This beauty is fresh, vibrant, medium to full-bodied, and as pure and precise as they come. It's another brilliant Chardonnay from this estate that will benefit from a year or two of bottle age and keep for over a decade.

The 2018 Chardonnay Hyde Vineyard is reminiscent of a fine Chablis, opening with notes of flint that segue to citrus and soft floral perfume. The palate is tensile and shimmery with racy acidity and mineral undertones. The youthfully shy fruits hint at more gravitas to come with time in bottle. 905 cases were made.
The 2018 Chardonnay Hyde Vineyard is a fabulous wine that captures all of the personality of this great Napa Valley site, but in the more restrained style David Ramey favors today. An exotic mélange of matchstick, apricot, honey, almond and spice builds in the glass. The Hyde is the most flamboyant wine in the range.
