2010 Ramey Chardonnay Hyde Vineyard - USA, California, Napa / Sonoma, Carneros (12/24/2016)
Served from magnum with my mom's famous lobster crumble, this was absolutely on point. Lemon, apple and spice aromas and flavors buttressed by firm acids made it a perfect foil to the rich and buttery lobster. Mouthfilling but not at all heavy, the wine remained lively and fresh throughout the meal. The large format clearly preserved freshness and youthful expression, and so there are years to go with this bottling in this format. Delicious wine.
