Literally the best expression of chard over ever had. Oxidized Meyer lemon and tangerine, with a funky Parmesan cheese rind finish. SO GOOD

Orchard fruits, floral, citrus and hints to stone fruits on the nose; lean palate, fresh and crisp, very citrusy, bright and a bit mineral, some cereal notes at the end, intense

Leesy whole milk nose that's kept interesting - not distracting - with oxidation.

Good style, good balance between ripe fruit, and oxidised notes. Fresh, Apple, light tropical notes, good integration of MLF.
