  Truly outstanding. Everything a Chard should be. Took to dinner at a restaurant, so no detailed tasting notes to provide.

  Great viscous mouthfeel, tropical fruit (a little more fruit forward than I would prefer but I quibble), notes of lemon curd and other complex notes. Full bodied chard, creamy, a wee bit of oak. Just delicious. Acidity quite reduced by its 7-year aging, but wasn't missed.

  Still drinking very well -- classic, well-made RR chard. Excellent.

  Had a bottle of this with friends at a local restaurant. We all raved how delicious it was. Fruit and some oak and some creaminess - really well-balanced.

  As Is predictable with Arista, these are exceptionally well constructed and delightfully smooth in an elegant way. Flavors of mango, stone, lemon. Delightful
