While the 1999 Chardonnay Hyde Vineyard does not reveal as many nuances as the Kistler Vineyard cuvee, it possesses plenty of tropical fruit as well as hints of peaches, apricots, and lemon zest. This medium-bodied effort is gorgeous, but less profound than its siblings. This brilliant offering should last 5-6 years.
Steve Kistler and his sidekick, Mark Bixler, feel that the key to making top quality Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in 2000 (an extremely cold year with higher acids) was patience. Some years the flavors come early, and in other years they are much later.
