Pale lemon with aromas of stone and citrus fruits and notes of spice. On the palate flavors of ripe apple and apricot with notes of lemon citrus. Medium+ finish, lively acidity ending with fruit and creamy mineral character. Just Ok!

Very creamy nose with a touch of pear.. Great full mouthfeel and lasting impression of oak and fruit blended nicely. Great chard.

Full bodied, cool spiced pear fruit, with pronounced smoky vanilla and fig flavors. Comes off somewhat murky alongside the others similar Chardonnay.

Average bottle. Some oak and grapefruit. Nothing stood out. Not bad or great

Delicious wine! Everyone loved it. Great chard! Not oaky or maybe just slightly so.

Butterscotch & ripe pear mingle in the lush bouquet on the nose. On the palate are light notes of baked pear, sprinkles of nutmeg, and crisp red apples.
