Pretty classic cooler climate Cali chard. With some orchard fruits and a very well balanced palate.

Such a consistently good value. Outgoing nose features butterscotch, tangerine, wet limestone, and a floral note. Dry and tangy in the mouth, with loads of stony minerality and acid, along with a bit of toasty barrel spice.

Impressive for its steely presentation. Tilts heavily towards a French-style of chard, but straddles the divide well. Apples and pears on the nose. Bracing acidity on the mid palate. White stone fruits blend with quince. Finishes bone dry. A style that’s not for everyone, but enjoyable.

Really tasty! Great flavor profile, mouthfeel, texture, etc. Almost reminds me of Premier Cru Burgundy
