Screw cap.
For $9 from K&L, this is exceptional. Presents a mineral-driven, steely nose, which transitions to the palate. Love the citrus fruits combining with delicate white flowers. Most memorable is the piercing minerality - mainly limestone. For the price, it’s unbeatable. Below $20 in the white wine class, no country touches France.

I love this Chard. The 2014 is fresh, vibrant and layered with flavor. Bright gold in color. Beautiful sheen. Lemon zest nose with faint tropical notes of pineapple. Palate is layered with structure and intense tropical fruits without being weighty or dominant. Extremely balanced. Tangy, lemon citrus, nectarine round and long finishing. $11-12 SRP opened (again) 10/3/15

Soft melon and ripe pear notes in the background. Subtle and pretty nose. Fresh and preserved acidity.

Touch of oak on the palate, citrus and apple notes, and good minerality. €14.95 O'Briens promo.

Great richness on the buttery palate, with vanilla, citrus and pear notes. Excellent lingering finish. €17.95 O'Briens.
