Another fabulous Chardonnay from Paul Hobbs.  Get the new release while it's available. 93 Points Robert Parker: "The 2013 Chardonnay Russian River displays lots of orange blossom and honeysuckle characteristics in a full-bodied, exuberant style with admirable minerality as well as good acidity. Drink now-2019... ...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 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."

Great mouth feel. Flavors of butter, baked apple and apricot. A gorgeous, full bodied Chardonnay. Very elegant.

Pretty intense and citrusy. Definitely full-bodied. Lemon tart with a bit of apricot, oak, honeydew melon, and honey.

Full bodied aged Chardonnay with butter, baked apple, and pear. Not as crisp and focused as younger vintages but equally enjoyable; particularly with spicy food. Cheers.

Not my cup of tea, but I respect the focus on a particular style.

Medium lemon. Aromas are smoke, brewer's yeast, and green apple. Flavors of butter and pear. M+ acidity. Dry. Full body wine with a long finish of bread and butter. Above average but a bit expensive for a Thursday evening run about. Pair with a special meal... thinking lobster with butter. Go for it.
