I thought I preferred Broc reds, but I've eaten those words. This Chard is kickass. Clean, bright, perfect acidity, energy. One of the better Chards I've had this year.

Golden, delicate, perfectly balanced and beautiful. A nose of amber, sweet grass notes and apricot burst forth from the glass. Medium body, creamy, sweet notes that linger long into the night with a beautiful bead of acidity.

One of the best Chardonnay I’ve had, equal to some Grand Cru. The nose is bold, with scents of the beach, fresh hot straw, cumquat and star fruit acidity. The flavor is medium bodied, long and lingering, with the perfect balance of minerality and golden ripe fruits. Had with thanksgiving, and it was amazing.
