Patz & Hall Chardonnay Hyde Vineyard 2017

The 2017 vintage displays classic Hyde Vineyard traits of delicate white flowers, tangerine zest, honey, and cinnamon. Poised and energetic, this wine is citrus-driven with orange blossom, hints of yellow apple and warm pie crust weaving a complex nose. The wine is bright and elegant on the palate; good density and concentration lead to a lingering richness fanning out across the long, acidic finish.

Silky smooth and sculptured in crisp apple, pear and integrated oak, this showcases the famous site in all its complex glory, with accents of baking spice and brine. Medium-bodied, it displays richness within a context of balance and grace.
