2003 Ramey Hudson Chardonnay - So I was going through the cellar and came across this behind an OWC. Figured it was way past it’s prime but decided to open it anyway. It had aged to a golden color which made me even more suspicious that it would be undrinkable. Boy was I wrong. If I had tasted this blind I would have guessed it to be a Batard Montrachet from a top producer. It actually improved in the glass. Biggest surprise ever for a CA Chardonnay. Wish I would have found more.
Wow! Shocking, but good for you!
Ramey definitely does make very good CA Chard within its style category. This reminds me of easily, easily the best CA Chardonnay I ever had which was a similarly aged Marcassin.

yea I agree, not quite as oaky as the marcassin, and def not as sweet but similarly enjoyable just the same and at 1/4 of the price!!
