Medium golden color. Aromas of green apple and natural gas. Earthy flavors of citrus and hazel nutscombined with a pleasant level of acid. Ninety points might be a tad generous and I do beleive this wine is on the decline.

OK, the fruit still hanging on against encroaching heat. Not as impressive as the last bottle, but still proves the point that CA Chard can develop and age far longer than the conventional wisdom.
Still, this bottle was on the back nine, maybe the 17th hole, and worth enjoying.

Aged exceptionally well...paired with black bass and brussel sprouts in bacon broth. Very Burgundian...drink in next 6-12 months.
