From CA vineyard royalty. Improves as it warms and with air time. This is a lesson in balance. Not a steely chard full of tropical flavors yet retains its minerality. Not an oak laced butter bomb but merely hints that it saw a minimal amount of oak in it's lifetime. Only 12.2% which is incredibly refreshing in a chard, especially one from a warmer climate. Tragic that 2013 was the last vintage before the chard vines were ripped out of the vineyard.

Jan 22nd, 2017From the famed James Berry vineyard, estate vineyard of Saxum. This Pax Mahle wine is so well balanced. High on fruit, great acid, and only 12.2%. Will be even better in a few years.

Excellent balance. Lemon zest and really nice minerality. Great chardonnay from the James Berry vineyard.
