Old style Chard, more oak and butter than fruity crisp stainless. Started chilled ,taste and aroma improved with warmth. Not so good alone but was better with flavored crackers and smooth cheese. Would be better paired with a peppery and or cheesy pasta dish. Maybe smoked oysters with the crackers too

Pretty tasteless malolactic crap. Any taste it might have is overwhelme by the HUUUUUUUGE OAK. Like eating a whole bloody tree in one mouthful. Doesn't taste too bad, just doesn't do much but iff you can taste it it's just bit taste-free-butter-chard covered with the national timber product of Canada. Why would you bother?
It's open enough and not horrible, but no worthwhile flavours to make you care. Can't even taste the butter. and this is from trying more than one bottle.
Take it to a frat party.

A buttery, oaky monster. Not a bad wine but you need to be looking for this profile to really enjoy.
