2003 Hyde De Villaine Chardonnay Special Reserve Single Clone Selection Hyde VineyardCarneros more |
4/21/2024 - Burgundy Al wrote: NRI found several of these, long lost on an un-inventoried shelf at offsite storage. These were great 15 years ago, and still tasty today, with plenty of ripe stone and orchard fruits, enough acidity to retain balance, and good+ depth, but this was much better when last tasted in 2009, but still drinking well, 87 points for now. |

4/1/2024 - Brian of Mull Likes this wine: 94 pointsPnP. Color is mid-golden straw. On the nose: Lemon and orange citrus, minerals, apple and pear, honeysuckle. On the palate: Oak spices, apple, pear, soft citrus , honey and nice minerality and acidity. Really well made wine. I had been gagging to try and was able to find one bottle. I will definitely be looking for more. |

2/17/2024 - Puteljen! Likes this wine: 92 pointsNose of green and yellow apples, lime, chalk and vanilla. Initially on the palate quite racy but brokadens in the mouth and finishes with vanilla, butter and ripe lemon. Still elegant for a californian chardonnay. Good stuff. |

1/20/2024 - Drbacchus wrote: 93 pointsVery nice. Usually at this price I’m disappointed. But not this time. Despite still being a bit young, this wine is very drinkable. I intend to shell out for a few more bottles to see how it matures and evolves over the next several years. Nonetheless, right now, it’s exceptionally well balanced and layered enough to produce a surprisingly soft yet complex, full palate pleasure. Cheers |

1/14/2024 - bon vivant wrote: 94 pointsA very impressive showing, this was quite tight and wound up so we tossed it into a decanter and the fireworks started within 45 plus minutes. Beautiful exotic tropical fruit and great texture which is fresh and focused. Some spice up front and still very young but shows great promise. Nice umami salinity on the long balanced finish. Would give this a minimum of 3 years to round up a bit and it will likely merit a few more point. One of the better Cali Chards I have had in the last few years. Class in a glass! |

12/10/2023 - Goatkeeper Likes this wine: 92 pointsFound this in my cellar and realized it was nearly 10 years old. I need to watch my inventory better. At any rate this wine has a beautiful color. The taste is smooth but a little clipped on the finish. Good flavor, light butter, muted citrus notes. All in all not a bad wine but if I remember correctly quite expensive due to some “expert” giving it a high score. As I write this the wine is warming up from the cellar temperature and it’s better. Still not a good QPR. My taste in Chardonnay seems to be quite happy in the $20 to $25 range and I need to resist buying above that range. Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

10/28/2023 - Bbrown82 Likes this wine: 94 pointsJust a delicious Chardonnay. I have had the last three vintages of this wine and they seem to keep getting better. Pale gold color. Toasted almond, red apple, brioche on the nose. Ripe apple and pear, butter, almond, and a great mineral undertone. 94 points. |
