No joke, this is $15 and beats most CA and Chilean chards at the same price. Very tasty little wine.

Really tasty - straw colored wee bit of haze, delightful pineapple, guava, yellow apple, floral on nose, more sweet green fruit + leesy, malo-y on palate, great structure & freshness. Plenty of flavor & character for < $15 from rural NC

light slightly citrus slightly floral nose, fruity flavor (lemon curd, pineapple) and almost a candy sweetness... kind of reminds me of pez... with a huge creamy mouthfeel. Not what I was expecting. Wonder if this is an NC thing. Not sure if I'm a fan.
