This is one of those wines that everyone will have an opinion about. I mean that in a good way. Not your typical chard. Here’s my thoughts: light on the nose/ sweetness detected. Crisp, lightly tart n sweet. Very nice flavor in general but does cling to the tongue. I’m used to chard’s being more dry than sweet so this one was a surprise. Enjoyable overall but there needs to be a drier finish to balance out the sweet. Would be lovely with fruit n cheese tray or on a warm day. I liked it just needed a little more balance.
