My first white stones. Interesting typicity that’s unfamiliar to me. Unlike any chard I’ve had. For my taste this is best slightly below cellar temp. There’s a lot going on. When too cold, the lemon/lime aspect overwhelmed the rest of it.

Oct 2nd, 2020Beautiful Chardonnay w lots of chalky minerality and a saline finish. Initially it’s all about the minerals, but opens up with air to include lemon, gold and green apples, pear, and white peach. A touch of vanilla on the nose becomes elegant cream and pastry on the palate. Opulent yet refined.
