Grapes sourced from 60 vineyard lots, aromas of citrus fruits & sweet spice. On the palate ripe fruits, apple, pear and peach with lemon citrus and vanilla, a touch of toasty oak. Some oak aging, nice balance, medium+ finish ending with fruit and toasty oak finish. I continue to have this wine as a staple in my cellar for a number of years. Enjoy! Great value, compared to Chards costing more!

Family-owned and operated since 1985. Just tried the ‘15 vintage. Grapes sourced from several vineyards, complex aromas of fruits, citrus & sweet spice. On the palate ripe fruits, apple, pear and peach with lemon citrus and vanilla adding toasty oak. French oak aging, great balance, lingering ending with toasty oak finish. I have had this wine as a staple in my cellar for a number of years. Enjoy! Great value, compared to Chards costing $10 more.
