2013 - Clean crisp HB Chard, not heavy use of oak but enough for harmony and structure, lean citrus and orchard fruit, beautiful balanced acidity with the just enough butter on the finish to linger. Subtle, yummy and all around pleaser!

2013: Well well what have we here, I have never seen this label before. It is made only in small quantities and manly sold in the local restaurants. It is only lightly oaked so you can actually taste grapes ! It is actually adorable. This is the sort of chardonnay that is seeing it recover internationally. Well that's sad as I don't think you can have any of this. Ha !

2011. Lean, mineral, lime, "more marzipan than nougat". Old world; Chablis-like. Fabulous.
