Hyde De Villaine Hyde Vineyard Chardonnay 2009

$59.95

All the best elements of the vintage and house style come together in HdV's 2009 Chardonnay Hyde Vineyard. The fruit is a bit richer, riper and more voluptuous than in most HdV wines, which serves to balance the cool, vibrant style the estate favors. The 2009 impresses for its length, persistence and spherical finish. This is a great showing from HdV. Anticipated maturity: 2014-2024. eRobertParker.com

Focused and balanced fruit to oak treatment. Decent length but lacking compared to the Montelena tasted beside it.

Flower blossom, orange peel and pineapple on the nose. Very intense fruit and bright acid in the mouth. Long fish and it is drinking well now

Great CA Chardonnay but a touch too oaky for me. I think I'd love this in 7 years

Great buttery chard. Well balanced with the perfect barrel time giving it the needed acid to hold up to the big oak. You must love oak and butter.
