A nice oat-straw color with gold overtones. Honeycomb, creme fraiche, lemon zest, and pear aromas. A little briny as it greets the palate, moving into a meld of nutty and creamy textures and flavors that are cut with mostly citrus and tropical fruit. The oak and malo are balanced nicely, but it lacks just a little bit of the zip of acidity. Lingering finish.

Beautiful light golden yellow. Bright citrus and lemon zest with a hint of apple. Just a touch of oak and a sweetness to the finish.

A little less exciting the second time around but all in all a great Napa Chard.
