Elegant and delicate, the AR chards are always so subtle and gentle version of the grape. Very Chablis like or even champagne Blanc de blancs less the bubbles.

This is a bit different than the Watson and Trout Gulch. More rounded and less acid driven. More stone fruit. Delicious but a little unexpected in style.

Incredible creamy minerality. The sea salt nose with a background of lemon zest turns into a wonderful creamy body and a crisp finish. Ohh my

California chablis - lemon, mineral, terrific acid & texture. Slightly hollow mid-palate, but a lovely showing overall. ✌🏼

Absolutely beautiful. Could be mistaken for grand cru Chablis. Mineral and lemon. When this warmed up to room temperature it revealed layers of flavor and texture. Raw, unripe almonds, a little bit of citrus. Very little oak, if any.
