Very different in profile from the later years (2010, 2011) with significantly more oak. Oak has integrated well into the wine and its showing very well at the moment. Full bodied with hints of oak and fuller fruit but delicious for those who enjoy a more full body, older chard. Drinking well now but could go for a few more years.

Not sure I got all of MM's tastes below, but this is a big full Cali chard that also has enough acidity to keep it interesting ..Sue and I really loved this

Wonderful hints of apple tart. No butter and not too crisp. Rare Chard outing for us and this is one we will definitely return to.
