Paul Hobbs Ross Station Estate Chardonnay 2013

$79.99

Limited new release from Paul Hobbs.96 Points Robert Parker:  "The full-bodied 2013 Chardonnay Ross Station Estate exhibits more honeyed melon, mango and cooler tropical fruits than the Ellen Lane or Edward James. Drink now-2021....Paul Hobbs is undoubtedly one of the world’s finest consultants, and as Americans we’re lucky to have this New York State-born winemaking guru right in the heart of the Russian River, turning out a bevy of wines from both Napa (reviewed in issue 215) and the following items from their estate vineyards in Sonoma as well as from purchased fruit. Hobbs has a separate entity now, which is aimed at producing good value wines under the Cross Barn by Paul Hobbs moniker. There’s some juicy, high-quality stuff in these cuvées."

Beautiful spring afternoon and enjoying this on the back patio. Apricot, honeydew, toasted hazelnuts, and vanilla. Slightly oaky and buttery but not overly done. Very good!
