97-99 The Wine Independent - Lisa Perrotti-Brown -
Read
The 2022 Larry Hyde & Sons Chardonnay, tasted as a barrel sample, rockets from the glass with intense notes of grapefruit essence, juicy white peaches, and fresh pineapple leading to touches of orange blossoms, candied ginger, and chopped cashews with a hint of honeycomb. The full-bodied palate bursts with concentrated stone and tropical fruit layers, supported by a refreshing backbone and creamy texture, leading to a lingering ginger ale note on the finish of this delicious wine. Planted with the Corton Charlemagne and Old Wente clones on St Georges rootstock, this is one of the last vineyards to be harvested, hence a long hang-time.
