Flavors of bruised fruit. This wine is barely hanging on.

Crisp and restrained, this disguised Castoro Cellars Chard is full of bright floral flavors.

Color of bubbly gold. Nose of roasted nuts, ripe pineapple, ripe mango with pear, a bit citrusy and a bit honey. Nose is sweet, ripe, and warm. Pretty good nose. Taste on the other hand is a bit light, with flowering note,zest, a bit spicy, and hint of ripe tropical fruits. Aftertaste is also a bit light and dominant by the zest. Quite a shame and the nose is definitely awesome.

Not great, kinda tastes like nothing, HOWEVER, it’s easy drinking. Would buy this for a low key week day wine.

Light and summery. Great with a lemony fish meal.
