2020 Ladybug Chardonnay
VINEYARD
The Ladybug vineyard is named in honor of Cristina Hudson, affectionately known as “ladybug”. This vineyard lies on the north-eastern part of the ranch and is sheltered by Milliken Peak, which protects it from the prevailing westerly winds. Therefore, this site has slightly warmer days and cooler nights, ripening 10 days after the more westerly portions of the ranch. Ladybug tends to be a bolder, more opulent wine while still maintaining the characteristic energy of a Hudson Chardonnay.
TASTING NOTES
The 2020 Ladybug showcases enticing aromas of jasmine, beeswax and crème Brule. It has a full body with a round, lush mouthfeel, finishing long and lingering on the palate.
