2017 Hartford Court Chardonnay Stone Cote Vineyard Sonoma Coast

A lovely nose of honey and warm spice. Wonderful feel in the mouth with notes of lemon, honey, and spice. Brilliant acidity and balance. Beautiful minerality. Finishes long and subtle with lemon notes. Brilliant stuff. Will hold/improve for 5 to 6 years at least. "A+"

I continue to be impressed by the wines from Hartford. Pricey, but excellent.

Our opinion on Hartford as well. Very good but pricey. I've never had one we didn't like. The Zins & Pinots are good as well.

I think I just saw one of their Chards on sale somewhere.

MacArthurs for $33. Not sure if we've tried this one.

The Four Hearts chard is now my house white. I grab them when they go on sale.

Same feelings about the whole Hartford line; good across the board.

FYI...the Benovia winemaker used to work at Hartford and you can see the similarities.
