Sipping Fine Wine Delectable Pro

Sunshine lemon color, aromas of tropical, stone and citrus fruits with mineral notes, aged 10 months in 28% new oak. On the palate flavors of pineapple, peach and lemon citrus wrapped in smooth spicy tones. Long finish, lively acidity, ending with fruit, notes of flinty mineral and savory citrus character. Nice!

Pre-Thanksgiving dinner wine, nice lemon notes with balanced oak use, not obtrusive.

The 2019 Chardonnay (Russian River) is a terrific appellation-level wine. Bright and finely cut, the 2019 is so well-balanced. Lemon peel and white flowers grace this enticing Chardonnay from Hartford. Bright acids and floral accents round out the finish nicely. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, July 2021)

2019 vintage served with homemade vegetarian pizza. Smooth, buttery and delicious wine. Notes of vanilla and nutmeg! The price is right for a fine wine.

Hartford Court has have some high scoring Chard in recent vintages. This entry level RRV bottling has a nice mix of citrus and stone fruits, pineapple, and roasted almond on the nose. Bright acidity lifts the rich creamy palate. The heady 14.5% abv makes it presence felt. Overall a rich oaky chard with balance. Easy to like.
