96+ Points
Lee Hudson's vineyard in Napa Valley's Carneros region has come to be synonymous with some of the best winegrapes grown in California, going into some of the State's top Chardonnays (Kistler, Kongsgaard, Patz & Hall, Ramey). His own wine is fantastic but super-limited production. Grab some today before this delicious vintage slips away.
94 Points Wine Spectator: "Butterscotch, vanilla cream and lemon curd flavors are at the core of this plump and juicy version, with details of jasmine, candied orange peel, marmalade and salted, buttery shortbread. Despite the generous and intense flavors, fresh acidity keeps the notes fresh and light on their feet. Drink now through 2038."
94 Points Robert Parker: "The largest volume wine produced by Hudson, there are more than 1,500 cases of the 2022 Chardonnay Estate, all Old Wente from four blocks, barrel fermented and aged 18 months in 65% new French oak (François Frères and Damy). Subtle toast and struck flint notes mark the nose, adding intrigue to the pineapple-like fruit. It's medium to full-bodied, ripe, opulent and creamy in feel, with a long, harmonious and even velvety-textured finish... These are some of the strongest wines I have yet tasted from them, thanks to winemaker Christopher Vandendriessche and consultant John Kongsgaard."
The 2022 Estate Chardonnay showcases a combination of four distinct blocks from the Hudson Estate planted to Heritage Shot Wente clone. We hand select barrels from each site to create a Chardonnay that fully expresses the elegant and balanced style of Hudson Vineyards. Showing beautifully right off the cork, this is one of the most distinctive and impressive vintages of this wine we have ever crafted.
