Tart apple, lemon, vanilla, oak and hints of limestone. Nice acidity and balance.

I prefer reds to whites generally, but I really enjoyed this wine. Very refreshing, not too dry - very balanced.

Not buttery - more minerals. Paired well with asparagus, etc. $60

Rich oak flavor that I've enjoyed with fish, salads, pasta and even with pizza. I enjoy the flavor of toasted butter, with its almost nutty aroma, and this wine captured that well without me getting sick of it!

Least favorite of 2 Simi Chards (but still really good). Less creamy and buttery than most Chards.
