This exceptional Chardonnay is aromatic and full of flavour. There are harmonious notes of honey, orange peel, white blossom and toasted almonds on the nose, leading to an irresistible balance of tangy green apple character and luxurious mellowness of all-butter shortbread on the palate. Established in 1979 by Larry Hyde, Hyde Vineyard is not only one of California's finest locations for cool-climate varieties, but has played a significant role in establishing the reputation of the Carneros district for premium Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.

Press Review
" The 2018 vintage is elegant, yet powerful and displays classic Hyde Vineyard traits of delicate white flowers, tangerine zest, and lemon cream. On the palate the wine is citrus-driven with orange and lemon flavors along with hints of toasted almond and vanilla. The wine has great acidity that leaves a white chalk/mineral note on the very long finish. "
