Bought the last few bottles on close-out for unbelievable $8 ea last year. Turns out they must not have been stored properly. Some were undrinkable. Some like this one exhibited a smooth rich almost syrupy pear flavor that went well with rich seafood.

Great nose of tropical fruits and vanilla. Smells very rich and buttery, but not overdone on the palate and not really much butter. Medium-bodied, slightly sweet and with a tart finish. Not quite as fresh as prior bottles - time to drink up.

Notes of late harvest and botrytis along with fingernail polish. If that looks like my previous note, you are correct. My 2nd bad bottle and probably my last bottle of this wine.

This may have been better years ago and I am not a big chard fan so this only gets an average score.

With the creme brulee thing going on, my wife couldn't drink it. I thought it was interesting, but not my style.
