Friday, July 20, 2012 - No notes, no decant.

Excellent bright apple, pear, and lt. orange zest.
Very pure and best on day 1.
Lost some verve on day 3, but still yummy.

While not as stellar as some of their single-vineyard chards,
an impressive bargain if one is going to drink up in 1 day.

Ideal with food that matches a solid unoaked style top chard.

As always, they pick when the grapes are ready and even at 14.6% there are No heat faults.
Smooth CA style without the verve of a top French offering, but immensely enjoyable.

91+ pts.
