Full of contradictions. Super ripe baked orchard fruit along side lots of acidity. Rich, oxidative leesy-ness, without any new oak or malo butteriness. Sea shell mineralIty and mushroom funk. Not typical Cali chard, but pretty compelling in the glass.

Just a bit too rich/ripe for my personal Chardonnay taste. Not bad if you like this style. Plenty of acidity to hold it together but the baked/ripe fruit just doesn't beg me to polish off the bottle. Better on day 2 with a Greek salad.

A big chard with a citrus nectar nose. Honey starts in the palate but is quickly overcome by huge oak that hangs on through a big acid finish. If you love big oaky, high alcohol chards, this is your wine.
