96+ Produced from the “Shot Wente” heritage selection clone and all naturally fermented in French oak, 85% new, where it was aged for 12 months, the 2015 Chardonnay Hudson Vineyard reveals intense grapefruit, pineapple and honeysuckle notes with hints of brioche, ginger and shaved almonds. Medium to full-bodied, the palate is bursting with spicy, tropical fruit flavors, framed by plenty of freshness and a satiny texture, finishing with great length and depth. 1,000 cases were made. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown

All from the Shot Wente clone and brought up in 85% new French oak, the 2015 Chardonnay is a beauty that does everything right. With a terrific reductive quality and notes of caramelized citrus, brioche, and toasted nut, this Grand Cru White Burgundy look-alike is medium-bodied, vibrant, and crisp on the palate. It’s going to be even better in a year and keep for a decade or more.
