Tasting notes
The 2019 Chardonnay Little Bit comes from a single block in the Hudson Vineyard in Carneros and spent 23 months in French oak. It’s a more marine, mineral-driven Chardonnay and has wonderful floral, toasted nut, and stone fruits notes. Rich, medium to full-bodied, decadent, and flawlessly balanced, it’s a head-turning Chardonnay to drink over the coming 4-6 years.

The 2019 Chardonnay Little Bit is far more shy and reticent to begin than Hudson's other Chardonnays, but man when it kicks off: notes of green mango, lime cordial and ripe, juicy peach followed by wet pebbles, coriander seed, beeswax and brioche. The medium to full-bodied palate is tightly wound with loads of citrus and stone fruit layers, framed by a creamy texture and refreshing line, finishing long and mineral laced. This is such a wonderful complement to Hudson's Ladybug Chardonnay, you'll want to have both!
