December 23, 2018 - N: Butter, poss some spice
P: Med body; Rndish entry with NICE, ALMOST swtish frt nicely counteralanced by acidity which evolves into a LONG, very, VERY sliigthly bitterish finish with an OVERALL tangy/swtness (60:40) that goes well with at least seafood. 14.7% ABV; My VG+, poss VG+/EXC-.1 person found this helpful Comment -

September 18, 2018 - PnP. Fermented and aged in stainless steel and small concrete tanks, this wine is freshly acidic from start to finish. The nose yields mineral and citrus. The palate yields solid minerality and lemon citrus, along with some grapefruit and lime. the wine has a medium to plus mouthfeel, with a medium finish. A solid example of CA unoaked chard and a very reasonable QPR at $18 (on sale). Should be good for a couple of years.

Color: light pale
Nose: some rubbery oak upon served even called unpacked, then some light pear favor after.
Taste: a bit light, some red fruit follow by grapefruit bitterness and maybe some lead.
A bit interesting style but not my favor.1 person found this helpful Comment -

August 17, 2018 - Disappointed, nothing close to the big brother, Reserve. Supposedly Unoaked but somewhat mouthfeel a lot « buttery ». I would definitely rather pay 10-12$ more for the Reserve
