2010 Dutton Ranch - Russian River Valley Chardonnay:
With a long, cool summer that promoted even ripening and ample hangtime, the 2010 growing season proved excellent for Burgundian varietals. In broad strokes, there is beautiful freshness to this wine, with clearly delineated vineyard character. At the same time, the modest crop size in 2010 has contributed to amazing concentration, spotlighting notes of spiced tropical peach, pear, honeydew, clove and narcissus. The mid-palate is vibrant and bright, combining delicate, mouthwatering acidity with rich fruit, all surrounded by subtle, oak-inspired notes of cinnamon, spiced toffee and roasted almonds.
2009 Hyde Vineyard - Carneros Chardonnay:
This is one of our finest bottlings of Hyde Vineyard Chardonnay in memory, and like many of our wines from the spectacular 2009 vintage, it is richly textured with beautiful density and depth. The nose offers classic Hyde notes of marmalade and ginger, with layers of cedar and smoke adding a complex counterpoint. On the palate, the citrus and orange peel flavors combine with notes of summer melon, grilled pineapple, pear, cinnamon, clove and a hint of honey. Though the acidity is subtle and integrated, in tandem with Hyde’s signature minerality, it gives the wine energy and drive.
2010 Zio Tony Ranch - Russian River Valley Chardonnay:
This wine strikes a deft balance between depth and delicateness. The initial aromas are fresh and inviting with layers of peach and green apple, supported by richer notes of vanilla bean, toasted spice, toffee and dusty cedar. On the palate, excellent acidity adds length and precision to peach pie, grapefruit and mocha flavors that are deep and expressive without ever being heavy—Chardonnay that shows its cool-vintage character with elegance and flair.
