Winemaker's notes: A fabulous section of Wente clone Chardonnay, planted exclusively for Patz & Hall by Steve Hill and his son Ned, forms the foundation of our Durell Vineyard Sonoma Valley Chardonnay each vintage. The 2006 Durell Vineyard — Sonoma Valley Chardonnay offers a more sleek and sophisticated incarnation of this bottling than in previous vintages. Displaying lithe elements from the cooler side of the fruit spectrum, it delivers enticing fresh fruit and lemon blossom aromatics, followed by crisp flavors of Pippin apple, pear and lemon cream. Distinguished by its cleansing acidity and its natural minerality, this vibrant Chardonnay offers a harmonious blend of intense components and an extraordinary finish.
Tanzer Review: Good medium yellow. Lemon drop, orange, clove and minerals on the nose, complicated by a musky flinty, smoky character. Sweet and glyceral in the mouth, with fruitdriven flavors of pineapple, lemon custard and stone fruits. A bit more complex and deep than the Napa Valley bottling.
We are dedicated to offering both hard to find items, hidden gems and the best in customer service.
