I don't drink much white wine but here goes, it's almost tropical on the nose. The taste is sweet Like really sweet. Like communion wine sweet.

More mineral than I'd expect. But sweet too, with some citrus at the end. Medium in body. Pretty dang decent. Could have a bit more...bite. But I couldn't object. Nor would I go out of the way for a bottle but not bad. And a lot better than many grocery store buys as far as Chard goes.

Not too buttery and you can definitely taste a fruity kick in its aftertaste

Nice nose, tropical, green apple, vanilla, nice weight in body. Takes a while to open, so give it time.

Oak overwhelms the fruit especially on palate & retro nasally.
