Description
TASTING NOTE: The 2010 Chardonnay Hope's Cuvee is rich, explosive and beautifully layered. Honey, almonds, orange blossoms and butterscotch all burst onto the palate in a voluptuous creamy style of Chardonnay long on balance and harmony. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2018. Score: 93 (Antonio Galloni, erobertparker.com, Dec. 2012)

Tasting Notes
The best Chardonnay I have ever tasted from Ray Signorello has to be the 2015 Chardonnay Estate Unfiltered Hope's Cuvee. With its tiny yields, old vines and unfiltered style of keeping the wine nine months in barrel (of which half is new French oak and the rest used),this wine is absolutely spectacular. The wine has a Montrachet-like richness with profound concentration from the tiny yields, loads of caramelized citrus, honeysuckle, white peach, melons and a touch of brioche. It is full-bodied, but great acid, purity and length make for an incredible wine from this old vineyard's clay and loamy soils. Drink over the next 10-12 years as this has every indication of being long-lived. Drink Date: 2016-2028. Score - 98. (Robert Parker Jr., robertparker.com, Oct. 28, 2016)
