October 14, 2019 - Discovered this wine earlier this year and it is a real find. The opposite of your typical oaky, buttery California Chard. Full mouth feel of tropical fruit and some deep trout gulch mineral (joke). Ready to drink now without decanting. Have no idea if it will age but hope to find out.

September 20, 2019 - Second bottle and I think I have found a very drinkable California Chard. See if future vintages are as good.
