An elegant expression of Napa Valley Chardonnay, where freshness, complexity, and refined craftsmanship come together.
Sourced from the renowned Hyde Vineyard in Los Carneros, the 2018 HdV Chardonnay showcases the exceptional character of vines aged 28 to 40 years. Benefiting from the region's cool marine influences and an ideal growing season, this beautifully balanced Chardonnay offers both vibrant energy and remarkable depth.
Delicate aromas of jasmine and lime blossom unfold alongside Meyer lemon and crisp green apple, complemented by subtle notes of baking spice and toasted brioche. On the palate, bright acidity meets a rich, silky texture, leading to a long, mineral-driven finish that is both refreshing and sophisticated.
Aged for 14 months with 20% new oak and bottled unfined and unfiltered, this Chardonnay is a timeless expression of elegance, with the structure and complexity to evolve beautifully over time.
