This is a remarkable Chard, rich color, complex flavor. I'm saving my last bottle until 2018, I want to see where it goes. The wine looks yellow gold colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle.

Medium to full body; dark yellow (woodsy?) color; nose of spring flowers and linden tree flowers; great balance, with an unctuous mouthfeel, notes of citrus, cedar and a tad bit of butterscotch and oak; some smoke on the midpalate; elegant; slightly hot finish; 13.5% ABV. Has more weight than the '09. This is now past its time -- I guess Dutton-Goldfield Chards are best consumed in their youth? Went excellently with a leek and chestnuts souffle. 88+

Nicely balanced Chard. Notes of pear, but not overwhelming. Very nice. A rebuy.

Good balanced flavors. A shade too much oak, but still very nice.
