Toasted oak, rich, almost new world style in this warm vintage. Layered and long. Very good.

A gem of a Chard… So evolved. Started out very nutty with notes of raw macadamia and evolved to greatness: roundness and layered complexity full of brioche, acidity, minerals, citrus, and a long finish with tones of pine nuts. Cheers.

Aerated for over an hour. This is crazy good. So evolved and layered. Pronounced and immediate tertiary aromas and flavors of hazelnut and nutmeg. Sweet tangerine and ripe red apple primary aromas and flavors come second and some good’ol bread and butter secondary aromas and flavors come last. This is dry with medium plus acidity, medium alcohol, full bodied, with a prolonged slightly tannic finish. Outstanding wine. Cheers.
