The wine world is changing. Great job from this Virginia winery. Swear it would come from central coast or even napa and Sonoma. Full bodied mouth filling richness. Little oaky but still nicely balanced. Got this little gem from some very god friend on the east coast. Thanks again for enlightening this California palate.

Well-proportioned and well-intentioned for short- to medium-term enjoyment. No ML; ten months in oak sur lie

Very decent new world Chard smelling and tasting of apples and pears. Good acid for a very warm site.

The best Boisseau I've tasted. Great acidity from picking younger. Warm apple and pear crème brûlée on the palate. A touch of new oak. Very nice.

Too much rain means no vineyard designates in 2018 whites (No reds at all, just rosé) but a villages bottling of which this will eventually be a component.
