Light gold color. Pineapple and tropical fruit but mixed with other stuff. The oak emerges after it gets more air. Definitely rich of flavor that I couldn't distinguish them all. Nice Calif. Chard body, round and buttery. A bit oaky. Taste thick and rich. It finishes with a bit bitterness. The alcohol goes into the system quickly though...but we enjoyed it.

Seattle Pre-1990 CdP offline (Kaspar's - 19 West Harrison, Seattle WA 98119): A touch of rubber on the nose blew off quickly to reveal sweet smoke and citrus notes. On the palate I had more smoke and citrus along with butter and oak. I really liked this but also thought it was a bit flabby.

Heritage: A relatively good, but generic cal. chard.; good doses of oak, some fragrant fruit, med.+ bod, back end pique. Fair, maybe over oaked a bit.
