Seasons Of The North

Ramey Wine Cellars

Hyde Vineyard Chardonnay 2023

Pale lemon in color with a golden hue.

Beautiful nose of citrus, lemons, apples, pears, light earth, light oak and spices.

Medium-bodied and elegant, with medium acidity.

Dry on the palate with lemons, apples, citrus, pears, spices, light oak, sea salt, light earth and minerals.

Long finish with limes and almonds.

This is a delicious Chardonnay from Napa Valley. Nicely balanced, complex and engaging. Tangy, soft and interesting. Feels like an upscale White Burgundy.

This Single Vineyard Chardonnay is still young, but already drinking beautifully, and will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years. Showing good potential to become a 94+ point wine.

Good right out of the bottle, and better when not too cold.

100% Chardonnay grapes were aged in (20% new) French oak barrels for 20 months.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$85.
