Medium gold color with effusive toast, citrus and trpoical fruit notes in the nose. Great body and flavors with abundant acidity that identifies it as an Edna Valley based wine. My wife commented that it smelled like a Napa Chard but was more elegant and without that sense of sweetness seen in may chards. Very enjoyable.

Purchased at consumed as an aperitif in the bar at the Vintage Press Restaurant (Visalia, CA). Bright disc. Light green/yellow robe with clear rim. Clean, perfumy nose of minerals, pears, cardamom and toasted oak. Medium-bodied on the palate, with crisp acidity and similar flavors as for the nose. Long, smooth finish. Very impressive, this wine should drink well for the next 3-4 years.
