  August 13, 2023 - Really enjoyed this week: delicate balance, and not oaky or buttery. Could have been mistaken for an old world classic chardonnay. It might have a year or two more to go, but it is drinking beautifully now. Drank it accompanying European style small plates and it paired them well (we didn't have any meats or spicy or rich foods).

  May 15, 2021 - Cathy and I enjoyed this bottle very much with the second-night leftovers of Tuscan shrimp - a terrific pairing. A bit surprising but I liked the Patz Hyde better than the Ramey Hyde on the first night. Like the Ramey, which I rated a close 92, the Patz too was very balanced, but a little bit more lush and textured than the Ramey. Patz had medium body, crisp acidity and a deft touch of oak - present but not overbearing. Based on what we drank tonight, I think the P&H could go on for at least 2-3 years, well past the projected WA drink-by date of 2021. With 3 more bottles of 2014 in the cellar, I look forward to testing my guestimate on ageability.
