Rated 94
The 2020 Chardonnay (Napa Valley) is exquisite. That's all there is to it. Creamy and rich, yet not at all heavy, the Napa Valley Chardonnay is perhaps a bit understated, but also avoids the edginess of so many other wines in this vintage. Orchard fruit, mint, lemon confit and tangerine oil open first. Pretty floral and tropical accents grace the finish in this classy, polished Chardonnay from John and Alex Kongsgaard. Drinking Window: 2023-2030. (By Antonio Galloni on October 2022)
Our historic blend of the Hudson and Hyde vineyards shows the classic tangerine oil and creme brulee richness of aroma over intense marzipan and nectarine flavors. The palate is broad, but still well mannered. The finish is long and positively saline - dare we say "minerality?" Back when Robert Parker was visiting, he called this the Batard-Montrachet of Napa.
