Hyde Vineyard Carneros, Napa Valley

Hyde Vineyard is a well-respected family venture established by Larry Hyde in 1979. Hyde became a vineyard designate Miner Chardonnay starting with the 2009 vintage.

Our block is planted in Long Vineyards Selection (selected from Martini clones), a musque-like clone which brings a delicate floral aroma to this Chardonnay.
