2012 Stone Côte Vineyard Chardonnay
90 Points Josh Raynolds, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar

Pale gold. An exotically perfumed bouquet evokes fresh melon, white peach and smoky lees, with a hint of lemon curd adding lift. Open-knit honeydew and pit fruit flavors are given spine by tangy acidity and complemented by suggestions of buttered toast and minerals. Plump, weighty and broad on the powerful finish, with the peachy note repeating.

2012 Three Jacks Vineyard Chardonnay
90 Points Josh Raynolds, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar

Bright gold. Exotic perfume of nectarine, poached pear and orange, with a buttery undertone. Juicy, broad and concentrated, offering ripe pit and orchard fruit flavors with a sweetening touch of vanilla. Broader and lusher than the Stone Cote bottling but not lacking for energy. Finishes smooth and long, with building smokiness and minerality.

Hartford Court
2009 Stone Côte Vineyard Chardonnay
90 Points James Laube, Wine Spectator

Very rich and creamy, big and ripe, with fig, melon and smoky oak notes, yet given its size this turns elegant and detailed on the finish.

2009 Stone Côte Vineyard Chardonnay
90 Points Josh Raynolds, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar

Bright gold. Lemon zest, apple and baking spices on the nose, plus a slightly honeyed nuance. Juicy, clean and linear on entry, then richer in the middle, with good mineral lift to its juicy orchard fruit flavors. Finishes with very good length and focus, repeating the spice and honey note strongly.

2007 Seascape Vineyard Chardonnay
90 Points Joshua Greene, Wine & Spirits 90 Points - One of the Year's Best Chardonnay

Golden fruit of apricot and lemon balance this wine's oak tones of vanilla and toasted wheat, all refreshed by a crisp, apple-like acidity. It's full-on chardonnay, hinting at sweetness, but not tiring to drink. Serve it with roast pork glazed with apricot.

2007 Stone Côte Vineyard Chardonnay
90 Points Josh Raynolds, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar

Yellow-gold. Exotic aromas of poached pear, smoky lees and iodine. Sappy, palate-coating orchard fruit and melon flavors are braced by gentle minerality and dried flowers. The smoky note repeats on the broad, persistent finish.

Hartford Court
2007 Four Hearts Vineyards Chardonnay
90 Points Josh Raynolds, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar

Light yellow-gold. Mineral-driven aromas of Meyer lemon and apple, with a mounting floral honey quality. Fleshy and smooth, offering gently sweet orchard fruit flavors and good mineral lift. Open-knit and easy to drink, with very good finishing breadth and cling.

2006 Four Hearts Vineyards Chardonnay
90 Points Anthony Dias Blue, The Tasting Panel

Cool climate elegance and floral notes with aromatics, spice and lively high tones; racy, long and bursting with bright citrus.

Hartford Court
2005 Stone Côte Vineyard Chardonnay
90 Points Josh Raynolds, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar 90

Hazy gold. Full-throttle peach, poached pear and sweet butter scents, with a light kiss of smoke. Lush, round and creamy, with good heft to the ripe orchard fruit flavors. Picks up a note of ripe melon with air. Very open and expressive today.

Hartford Court
2004 Three Jacks Vineyard Chardonnay
90 Points Stephen Tanzer, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar 90

Slightly hazy pale yellow-gold color. Aromas of apricot, nuts, brioche and flowers. Fat, round and seamless; rich and deep but not at all heavy. Sweet flavors of apricot and spices linger nicely on the back.

Hartford Court
2002 Seascape Vineyard Chardonnay
90 Points Editor, Wine & Spirits 90

Composed from lime, from the flavor or Rose's lime juice and the acidity of mineral lime, this tastes clean and fresh, the citrus fruit holding on past wood tones of hazelnut. It should grow complex with another two years in bottle, to serve with grilled prawns.

Hartford Court
2002 Stone Côte Vineyard Chardonnay
90 Points Stephen Tanzer, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar 90

Bright, aromatic nose of pear, pineapple and wet stone. Juicy and stony in the mouth, with ripe flavors of soft citrus fruits. Nicely layered, supple wine with very good inner-mouth energy. Slightly warm on the back, but boasts better fruit than the 2001 version.

2002 Three Jacks Vineyard Chardonnay
90 Points Editor, Connoisseurs' Guide to California Wine 90, One Star

Noticeably hazy and filled with inviting aromas of apple pulp, sweet lemons and creamy oak, this solid and unreservedly rich wine is equally generous with its fruit on the palate. It may be just a touch simple and juicy at for the moment, but it should round out and broaden with a few years of bottle aging. Try it with sea bass or halibut in lightly creamed or buttery sauces.

Hartford Court
2001 Seascape Vineyard Chardonnay
90 Points Editor, Wine & Spirits 90

Packed with alcohol, this blows like a wind from the sea, giving immediate pineapple flavors, then it's gone. It's big and succulent while it lasts, a meal in itself, with sauerbraten or baked country ham.

Hartford
2000 Old Vine Zinfandel
90 Points Robert M. Parker Jr., Robert Parker Wine Advocate 90

Along with Turley Cellars and Robert Biale, Hartford has become one of northern California's most compelling Zinfandel producers. That is evidenced by the following five Zinfandels, all heavyweights from a difficult vintage. The 2000 Hartford Zinfandel Russian River (1000 cases, 15.9 % alcohol) is a sexy, sweet, ripe effort with oodles of briery, berry fruit intermixed with pepper, earth, and new oak. There is good acidity, but this is not meant for aging so enjoy it over the next 3-4 years.

2004 Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast
90 Points Editor, Wine Enthusiast Magazine 90

...catches the cool Sonoma Coast qualities of acidity and elegance. You'll find cherry and green tea flavors, and the wine should develop over the next five years.

2001 Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast
90 Points Editor, Wine & Spirits 90

A sauvage coastal red, this delivers on its heady scent with a deep, plush texture. Give it a year in the cellar, then enjoy its soft riches with roast salmon.

Hartford
2017 Old Vine Zinfandel
90 Points Lisa Perrotti-Brown, Robert Parker Wine Advocate

USA, Northern California, Napa Valley: 2016 & 2017 – A Tale of Two Vintages Medium to deep garnet-purple colored, the 2017 Hartford Zinfandel opens with bombastic blueberry pie, raspberry preserves and blackberry tart scents with waft of potpourri, Chinese five spice, raisin cake and dusty soil. The palate is full-bodied, rich and spicy with a zippy line of freshness and a long chewy finish.

Hartford
2016 Old Vine Zinfandel
90 Points Ken's Wine Guide Tasting Panel, Ken's Wine Guide Very Good+

This slightly opaque and dark red colored Zinfandel from Hartford opens with a fragrant mulberry and cranberry bouquet with a hint of clove. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, slightly acidic, and mouthwatering. The flavor profile is a tasty plum with notes of integrated oak. We also detected hints of red raspberry, black pepper and minerality. The finish is dry and its flavors are nicely prolonged. The Panel suggested pairing this wine with a pork tenderloin with a fig and sage sauce.

2015 Hartford Vineyard Zinfandel
90 Points Tim Fish, Wine Spectator

Distinctive aromas of raspberry and eucalyptus open to well-built, if rather taut, cherry, anise and stony mineral flavors.

Hartford
2012 Highwire Vineyard Zinfandel
90 Points Tim Fish, Wine Spectator 90 points - Outstanding

Tightly wound and powerfully built for the cellar, with mineral and aromatic herb aromas opening to compact flavors of blueberry, raspberry and white pepper. The tannins are ripe but dense. Hands off for now.

Hartford
2012 Dina's Vineyard Zinfandel
90 Points Robert M. Parker Jr., Robert Parker Wine Advocate

The 2012 Zinfandel Dina’s Vineyard (14.8% natural alcohol) is a more Pinot Noir-styled Zinfandel with elegant black raspberry, kirsch, spring flower and spicy oak notes (35% new oak was utilized), and a medium-bodied, fine, lacy mouthfeel. It’s a Zinfandel behaving like a premier cru red Burgundy. Enjoy it over the next 4-5 years.

Hartford
2011 Old Vine Zinfandel
90 Points Josh Raynolds, Stephen Tanzer's International Wine Cellar

Inky ruby. Bright cherry and black raspberry aromas are complemented by hints of dried rose, black tea and star anise. Lively cherry and dark berry flavors pick up spiciness with air, along with a touch of candied flowers. Shows good energy on the finish, which is firmed by youthful, fine-grained tannins. This rich but energetic zin will work well with strongly seasoned foods.
