Paul Hobbs' is one of the most accomplished winemakers in the world, and his reputation as a wine consultant is unparalleled. Nearly 3 dozen wineries in California, Chile and Argentina depend upon his skill and knowledge. This hand-harvested Chardonnay is typically rich and lively with a silky mouthfeel. You can expect it to offer considerable poise and finesse with complex and layered fruit tones. This is a wine that will reward 5+ years in your cellar, or you can enjoy it tonight with lobster tail or barbecued pork. |
