Tasting Note

Hyde Vineyard has justifiably become one of the superstar vineyards in Carneros. Through many years of dedicated research, planting and winemaking, Larry Hyde has developed two of the most important grape selections in California: Hyde-Wente Chardonnay and Hyde-Calera Pinot Noir. Both are noted for extremely low yields, primarily due to the very small berry size within each cluster. The Chardonnay from Hyde is some of the most sought-after fruit in the pantheon of great California vineyards This Chardonnay is from blocks planted exclusively for Patz & Hall in 1999 using the famous “Hyde Wente” selection of Chardonnay. This vintage shows classic characters of delicate white flowers, honey, orange peel and toasted almond. A slight whisper of faraway camp fire accents the fresh green apple and butter cookie notes in the mouth. This wine is at once delicate, powerful, elusive and evocative. A classic year for this iconic site.

Product Notes

The Patz & Hall Hyde Vineyard Carneros Chardonnay is an exquisite Californian wine. Produced in limited quantities, it displays an impeccable balance of intensity and elegance. Boasting a captivating bouquet of fresh pear, lemon zest, and almond blossom, it unfolds into delightful notes of apple pie and subtle French oak on the palate. With a silky texture, impeccable balance, and a finish that resonates with just the right amount of dryness, this Chardonnay is a testament to the excellent winemaking craft and the unique terroir of the Carneros region. It's a truly delightful tipple for any white wine lover.
