  February 13, 2010 - No formal notes. Tropical fruits. Creamy, with well-integrated oak. Pretty good.

  January 22, 2010 - Crisp nose with some citrus. Nice medium bodied, some butter, but not overwhelming, little to no oak. Clean grapefruit and pear, almost like a Sauv Blanc. Mineral, stone backend. Overall, I nice $20 Cali chard that is different than the usual, but it wasn't good enough for me to give it a 90+.

  May 5, 2009 - Pisoni tasting at USQ Wines (New York): green pear on nose; tart on palate too - a little sauv blanc-like.

  April 30, 2009 - This was our white wine club pick this month. NOT at all a typical California Chard, which is a good thing! Tastes more like a light SB, very enjoyable.

  March 17, 2009 - very clear, straw colored, citrus and wet stone aromas, beautiful middle weight texture, lemon mid-palate followed by a generous and creamy (but not buttery) finish full of flashy orange zest, pear, apricots, honey and nuances of fresh vegetation, very interesting style of CA chardonnay, it really stands out and it really leaves an impression, matched with a chicken pistachio dish, has some of the same flavors of viognier and some Spanish whites
