August 9, 2017 - IMHO I think this is an underrated vintage for this cuvée. Right now in optimal drinking window with beautiful nose of tropical fruits and butterscotch. Nice texture and balance. I will not hold for too much more years so I will drink all I have in my collection.

October 19, 2012 - This had been open for about 24 hours. The fruit had turned intensely tropical and dense. Lots of oak and butter, but they were nicely integrated with the fruit. I prefer the Estate chard, but this is a nice value.

June 22, 2011 - A dark yellow, almost golden color. Rich nose of oak followed by caramel, vanilla, then citrus. Not my type of chard, but others enjoyed it.
