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.

Ripe, stony, mineral driven whites! I'm a full for them!

This was the original wine that taught me what Chardonnay was capable of, and this one, with 8 years of aging still impressed. My friend Eric said it best, “it’s a schizophrenic wine”, the nose is wild and natural, super funky malo, with incredible tartness and yellow citrus, like an underripe pineapple and musty funk. The palate though on this slightly opaque, pale golden liquid is very different. Lemon curd, baked silky citrus explosion, with a woody, forest floor, and mineral like spine that rolls right down the middle, and ends with a surprisingly chalky and stony finish. Such a special site for wine, elevated by the measured hand of a veteran winemaker. @Chris Brockway

Aug 2nd, 2024Golden, 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.
