Tasting Notes
Robert Parker 95+
The 2017 Chardonnay Larry Hyde opens slowly, offering subtle glimpses of lime peel, fresh grapefruit and white peaches to begin before giving way to a compelling core of Bosc pears, fennel seed, marzipan and shaved ginger. Medium-bodied with tons of elegance and latent energy, the palate delivers tightly wound layers of citrus and stone fruit plus loads of mineral accents and a racy line of freshness, finishing long and zesty. I’d give this another year or two in bottle and drink it over the following 7-8 years.
Anticipated maturity: 2020-2029

2019 Spear, Gnesa Vineyard Chardonnay, Sta. Rita Hills 1x75cl
Blend: 100% Chardonnay
Vintage production: c.250 cases
SPEAR's Estate Gnesa Vineyard lies immediately west of the home ranch on the steep, north facing slope of almost pure sand, giving the wine... its unmistakable intensity and minerality. What makes this Chardonnay so good is its balance of richness and zing. This complexity and sense of place is a direct result of owner Ofer Shepher's dedication to sustainable, organic farming.

2015 Soliste, L’Age D’Or Chardonnay, Russian River Valley 12x75cl
Blend: 100% Chardonnay
Vintage production: 417 cases
L’Age D’Or comes from a vineyard just north of Sebastopol adjacent to the Laguna de Santa Rosa, the largest tributary of the Russian River.... Originally planted in 1971, these are among the oldest Chardonnay vines in the Russian River Valley. The vineyard is immaculately and sustainably managed.
Having white Burgundies as benchmarks, especially the wines of Raveneau, Jobard and Coche-Dury, Don and Claude were never to anxious to even attempt to craft Chardonnay in the new world as they had always felt that the wines were sometimes over the top with buttery pop corn mouth feel, way too much oak, high alcohol and clunky.
Their success with Sauvignon Blanc, and especially with St. Andelain, convinced them to begin a three year commitment with a fabulous, well-established vineyard in the Russian River Valley. Their willingness to experiment with different vinification as well as aging for 16 months in 600L thick stave barrels (44% new) results in a Chardonnay of great elegance, length and verve; very Meursault-like.
