I can’t believe I haven’t posted this, especially since I’ve gone through who knows how many this year. For me, Hudson chardonnay fruit is very distinctive aromatically, as I pick up clove and juicy fruit gum notes. Added notes of vanillin, Anjou pears and a touch of marzipan. Certainly rich in style and unmistakably Cali but lots of deep flavor and complexity. Honeyed Passion fruit, sea salted popcorn, and almond pastry on the palate. Good acidity as well. I’ve also found Hudson chardonnay fruit to be best enjoyed on the young side, but that may vary by producer. A consistently delicious chardonnay.

Nice little Chardonnay from Napa Co. straw color with a golden hue color, aromas of Meyer lemon, butter popcorn and hazelnut. Citrus flavors mild oak/butter flavors. This Chardonnay is very nicely balanced. Paired nicely with chicken cordon bleu and thyme risotto.
