Creme caramel nose, body full & rich with plenty of butter & oak. Initially seemed quite good but grew tired as complexity devolved to oak & butter

19.94 This wine tastes a little mature and has a lot of color. It has a rich peach/pineapple taste and sharp acidity. Oak is detectable, but I had to look for it.

Molto alcolico, deciso e legnoso, molto semplice ma comunque...bevuto tutto!

Solid oak and butter come together in a perfectly balanced full-bodied chard. I choose not to even pair it with food. Yeah, it's that good.

Tasty! A bit more crisp for a chardonnay and nicely balanced. And bonus of coming in 375mL.
2013 vintage

Really liked it. Not way buttery like a Napa, but full bodied enough to stand by itself

Enjoyed the 2013 with grilled tarragon chicken, butternut squash, and asparagus.
