Proper Cali Chard. Still ripe and rich, but oh so balanced. Golden apple, smoked hay, summer corn.

Seems complex but is shallow and superficial. Well-made with good intentions.

This wine drinks quite well, especially for the price point. The nose hints at light oak and the palate delivers minerality and both pineapple juice and light lemon. Quite crisp and balanced.

Lemon rind, green tea, butter. Zingy acidity and light-bodied.

Mineral-driven zest. Perfect for those Chardonnay rejectors out there.

Incredibly balanced with just a touch of new oak to balance the mouthwatering acidity. Great stuff.
