Ramey Chardonnay Carneros Hyde 2006
Ripe apricot, white peach, honeysuckle and hazelnut waft from the glass while the palate offers a crescendo of creamy richness and underlying finesse with utmost elegance after almost 8 years of aging. The finishing interplay of floral, golden fruit, macadamia nut oil, and mineral nuances will keep you occupied for an oh-so enjoyable happy hour or meal featuring seafood with creamy French sauces. Pair with Camembert or Brillat Savarin cheese (or white truffles) for a mindbending culinary thrill.

It’s about respect for the land. Nature guides our process and we listen – closely.
It’s about terroir. The vineyards are selected for their ability to sustainably produce the highest quality fruit. The soil must be right for the climate, which must be right for the terrain, which must be right for the varietal.
It’s about harmony – the marriage of Old World methods with New World innovations.
It’s about a family of wines crafted for the now, but even better with age. Bold, but in check, sensual, these are wines in perfect balance.
