Apple, lemon curd, white peach, slate and apricot. Great acidity and minerality.

Light gold color. Pineapple, pears, and apples with ample sweetness on the nose. More Riesling than Chard with apples and lots of sweetness. Medium depth and finish.

Re-read my previous note and it still holds true.

Light gold color with ever so subtle green hues. Ripe apples and pears on the nose. Big apples on the palate with some metallic elements. No oak and sweeter than most Chards I drink. Fairly thick wine with a medium plus finish. For $12, not sure you can do better!

This keeps getting sweeter and sweeter, the Riesling influence definitely coming through.
