Really nice drinking by the pool. Lemon curd, tangerine, slight note of honey. Acidity shines through. Bright and refreshing.

A solid Chard! Only 15 acres planted with grapes grown in Rutherford (warmer with rich ripe fruit) & Oak Knoll (cooler with fresh acidity in grapes). Pale lemon, with fresh & crisp citrus & stone fruit aromas, no malolactic fermentation. Palate shows peach, apple & Asian pear flavors, with lemony & toasty notes, lively acidity & balance with touch of vanilla oak (9 months of French oak aging (25% new & 1-year old, remainder neutral oak). Long finish ending with fruit, spice & biscuit notes. Very Nice Value!

Stunner for a stunning value. Acid structure for days, but totally knit into thoughtful oak use

Lemons on nose. Full body, dry, nice acidity, smooth. Apples and apricots on palate.

It’s as good as I remember it. Lovely grapefruit notes - subtle - opens up over time.
