In a really good place. Lemon peel, lemon butter. Clearly aged and golden with honey notes, tropical fruit - dried pineapple and a well weighted palate with good acid. Glad I held on to it.

Initially a little flabby and hollow, this got better as it came up a bit from cellar temperature but the oak is still a little overbearing. Shows a nice crisp acidity without being overripe, but this is just slightly out of balance.

Probably held too long. Too tart without the roundness of the other flavors that allows Chards to be drunk at will without much fuss.

Nice no ML (read butter) Cali Chard. My wife loves it, so it's good for everyone at my house...
