LIBRARY - 2012 Mira "Hyde" Chardonnay
Delicate aromas of citrus, pear and orange blossom with a hint of spice. A classic representation from Hyde Vineyard that includes a nice balance of citrus and floral flavors with a clean slate finish representative of the grapes origins. The complexity of the wine results in increasingly diverse flavor characteristics as it sits in the glass. 3 CASES AVAILABLE!
We regularly taste our library wines but due to the age of these wines there can be bottle variation. All sales are final.

Vineyard Notes
2012 presented ideal growing conditions in the Napa Valley. No frosts of note occurred, and spring, summer and fall were all mild and calm in terms of weather. With the naturally cooler temperatures found in the Los Carneros AVA, the fruit ripened without losing its acidity and natural flavor characteristics. This vintage presented few, if any, of the challenges experienced in many recent past vintages. The abundance of grapes allowed winemakers to select only the best for use in the wine.
Winemaker's Notes
: Barrel fermented and aged in 100% French oak, 30% new. Permitted to undergo malolactic fermentation in barrel. Aged on the lees for 18 months. Minimal stirring and racked three times.
