2003 Patz & Hall Chardonnay Durell Vineyard
UNITED STATES / CALIFORNIA / SONOMA
International Wine Cellar | Rating: 90
($48) Bright yellow. Musky aromas of nectarine and flowers. Fat, broad and very dry, with an intriguing flavor of wet stone; concentrated and thick. This has good breadth and good verve. Finishes broad and dry.Author: Stephen TanzerIssue: May/June 2005
Since 1988, Patz & Hall has set a standard for Chardonnays and Pinots that epitomize poise and finesse. The winery is a partnership of four individuals - Donald Patz, James Hall, Anne Moss and Heather Patz - all of whom are veterans in the production of fine wine. Between them, they have made wine at Flora Springs, Honig Cellars, Far Niente, Marimar Torres, Spring Mountain and Cain Vineyard. They source from regions ranging from the Santa Lucia Highlands to Mendocino, and prime areas in between. The wines skillfully maintain the intricate and graceful dance between substance and balance, power and elegance - the key characteristics of world-class Pinot Noir.
