Tasting note

The 2009 Hunting Hill Chardonnay is a little youthfully mute, giving delicate lime zest, chalk dust and pink grapefruit aromas over toasted almonds, meal and buttered scones. The palate has an elegant medium body yet packs in wonderfully concentrated toast, meal and citrus flavors with racy acidity, a satiny texture and a very long finish. I love it now, though it will benefit from another 6-12 months in bottle, drinking best 2013 to 2019+. Score - 94. (Lisa Perrotti-Brown, MW, erobertparker.com, Oct. 2011)

Long and dry and produced lovely clean, ripe Chardonnay with racy acidity. Beautifully fragrant with its lemon/lime blossom characters and lovely fruit purity.  This wine shares some of the characters with the neighboring Mate’s Vineyard with its attractive floral notes and restrained elegance.
