Cooler climate - more reserved and interesting than expected.

This 2014 Chard has some nice acidity and fruit on the nose and palate. Slightly Oaked which is very subtle. Will pair nicely with our meal!

1st chard post Willakia acquisition for @stemichelle. Great #wine. Linear, straight forward, lemon-lime, green apple with a hint of vanilla. Think it's $30 retail, game changer for Oregon at $50 in a restaurant.

Pale yellow, nose of some grapefruit & oak. At first acidic but with some air evened out to a nice round medium body in the mouth. Same grapefruit- maybe some not ripe peach. Good finish.

Retirement gift from Larry Weinstein. Buttery, crisp, good stand alone.

A very buttery medium body Chard that is smooth with a low alcohol bit. Peach & pear notes with more sweetness and less oak than a typical Chard. Very good!

I'm not the biggest fan of Chardonnay. This one was not bad, still a little too sweet for me. I'm sure if you like Chards. You would like this wine. It's well made and clean in flavor, just not my jam. Needs more citrus to break through all that sweet butteriness.

Dry green citric flavored with a salt flavor... Crisp after taste with a faint lemon scent and a silky smooth taste.
