Hudson Chardonnay

The famous John Kongsgaard is the consulting winemaker!

Famous Hudson Vineyard....many of the great wineries by from Hudson:  Kistler, Konsgaard, Marcassin, Neyers, Ramey....




2010 Hudson Vineyards Chardonnay...$61.99
The 2010 Chardonnay is gorgeous. Layers of expressive, varietal fruit emerge from a rich, textured Chardonnay long on class and personality. Ripe peaches, orange blossoms, spices and butter all flesh out on the gorgeous, expressive finish. The 2010 was aged in French oak barrels, 80% new, with batonnage twice a month. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2018.
These three new releases from Hudson Vineyards are more than worthy follow-ups to the 2009s. Christopher Vandendriessche is the winemaker, while John Kongsgaard consults.
Rated 92/100 The Wine Advocate
