August 3, 2006 - Flock Tasting of Cali Chards - 1999 or older (Dennis' place): Gorgeous shade of bronze with a singing nose of apricots, apple, almonds and boytris. Palate is sweet but light bodied with low viscosity. Impecably balanced with lively acidity. Everyone guessed aged Mosel - what a shocker!
