Found this a little confused - acidity was strong even on the nose you got a sour feel. On the pallet there was a nice hint of oak amidst the strong acidity but it did not feel very integrated and overall was not massively enjoyable. Decanted and drank at about the right temp, even after a couple of hours it was pretty much the same.

Really lovely - pineapple on the nose via the classic California chard vibes. On the palate it is rich and smooth - and a delicious long finish. We just had this with a spicy dish and it was a good pairing.

Chocolate richness galore. Enjoyed with bangers and mash having tried it late 2022 at Langoed Hall with venison.
