It’s hard to know where to start with this superb set of new and upcoming releases from Don Hartford and Jeff Stewart. The Chardonnays and Pinots get most of the attention, but the Zinfandels, most of which emerge from 100 year-old vineyards, may very well be the most impressed wines in this range. The Chardonnays are all fermented and aged in barrel (around 33%-60% new) for 15 months and bottled with no fining or filtration. Pretty much the same is true of the Pinots, which perhaps see a touch less new oak than the Chardonnays. The Zinfandels are made in a distinctly Pinot-influenced style that emphasizes aromatics and silkiness.
