2014 Paul Hobbs "Richard Dinner" Sonoma Mountain Chardonnay energetic red from the Chianti

energetic red from the Chianti Classico region of Panzano

It ages in large oak casks for 12 months and rests on the lees for 60 days

Shows some intensity

and this Veuve Clicquot Rose is a great example of this fantastic harvest

I have grown to love Riesling since coming to work for K&L and it is exciting to me to see one at this level for this price

2014 Paul Hobbs "Richard Dinner" Sonoma Mountain Chardonnay energetic red from the ChiantiThe two 2014 cuves from the Richard Dinner Vineyard are both full throttle Chardonnays, with the Cuve Agustina just bigger, denser, richer and, to my taste, even superior to the 2013 version. Both should drink well for 7 10 years. Paul Hobbs has emerged as one of the great success stories in Northern California. Hes an international consultant known for his outstanding work in Argentina. He is also now involved in a joint venture in the Finger Lakes
