Bright yellow with a green tinge, the 2022 Chardonnay Russian River Valley was raised with 30% new French oak, as were the majority of these wines from Hobbs. In the glass it opens to elegant and ripe aromas of fresh salted pineapple, honeyed citrus, and fresh flowers. Medium to full-bodied, it’s elegant and long on the palate, with a wide window for enjoyment over the next 7-8 years. 7,675 cases were produced.
The 2022 Chardonnay (Russian River Valley) is a delight. Tangerine peel, butter, ripe pear, apricot and white flowers open effortlessly. Medium in body and vibrant with terrific depth, the Russian River Chardonnay is a beautiful introduction to the range.
Matured in 36% new oak, the 2022 Chardonnay opens with matchstick scents that give way to baked peaches, apples and honey. The medium-bodied palate offers generous, gently honeyed flavors and integrated, spicy new oak. It has a soft, supple texture balanced by lip-smacking acidity and a long, flavorful finish. 7,675 cases produced.
