Always a well made wine and I personally have to be in the right mindset to thoroughly enjoy this unoaked Russian River Chard. Reminiscent on an intentionally still Blanc de Blanc, the palate and mouthfeel deliver a compelling story where the Apple and bracing acidity are the stars of the show.

Fruit is too opulent for lack of structure. Nice lemony note but that's about it. #russianriver #unoaked #chardonnay #williamsselyem

If you're one of those people who can't stand chard try this. Ripe tropical and green fruits, bright acidity, spicy yeast tones, long dry mouth watering finish. Love it.

Crisp with a nice smooth mouth feel. Pairs well with chicken or dessert. Would buy again and happily drink cold on a summers night.

Chablis-esque fruit, more lemon butter than lemon curd. Mineral does not sustain through its long, dry finish.
