Score 95/100 · Drink 2016-2021, Robert Parker, Apr 2016
The 2014 Chardonnay Hudson Vineyard (374 cases) is stunning. The wine saw 45% new French oak, but otherwise was treated identically to the Sonoma Coast bottling. This is from their three-acre block that has a special Hudson/Wente clone of Chardonnay planted. Smoky hazelnut notes suggest a Premier Cru from Meursault. The wine offers up poached pear and a touch of white peach in a full-bodied, delicious, sumptuous style with great acidity and a long, long finish. It is certainly one of the most impressive wines in the entire lineup and should drink nicely for 4-5 years.
