May 28, 2020 - Elegant and exquisite. At this point, nine years on, a bright yellow creamy delight. Earth and butter and pure seduction.

January 31, 2015 - Excellent California Chard, that is not buttery popcorn. Nice acidity and minerality, this isn't Chablis, but it is not an over the top Cali Chard. Long finish.

Tasted non blind.
Light yellow to yellow color in the glass, clear looking throughout. Nose of creme, vanilla, yellow pear and yellow apple. Flavors of vanilla, lemon and yellow pear. Medium acidity, full bodied. Drink over the next 5 years.
