An incredibly compelling and age-worthy Chard from Canada’s Okanagan Valley. In an oakier style than I normally prefer but balanced and nicely integrated acidity, salinity and citrus fruit. — 2 years ago

An indulgence - but not worth 3x price of wine from vineyard across the street. Drank w Scott and Jani — 4 years ago

Still maintaining bright lemon peel but beginning to taste like candied lemon & grilled pineapple from the age. Oak is beautifully balanced bringing vanilla and roasted cashews and almonds. A thought provoking marriage of oak and acidity. Still has some life in it to age but I can’t imagine it being much better than it is now — 6 months ago

Whoa. Color? Check. Taste? Checkmate. This is that Beaujolais that makes people LOVE THEM. Sweet and chuggable. Bought a second bottle and it wasn’t as great. Guess that’s what you get. However that first bottle KICKED. — 5 years ago

Buttery, dry, low acidity and fruit-forward. Wonderful pairing with a nice buttery croissant. — 6 years ago
