What a bargain at $16.99! This is a classic RRValley Chard, 100% varietally correct. Flinty, slightly-restrained fruit, not too austere, the oak didn't turn the wine into a buttery Chard. Just excellent. Sad that when I went back, they were out of this. I'd gladly pay $20 plus or minus for this quality. Drink now.

Retail $28. I have ridden by the vineyards dozens of times along Westside Road up to Wohler Bridge. If you know where that is, you know that it is beautiful riding and fantastic vineyards. Slightly golden straw in the glass with lemon curd, green apple, a touch of vanilla, and the ever-so-subtle presence of oak. The wine is initially rather soft on the palate before the fruit comes in halfway through. Right before the finish, the tartness comes roaring in along with some salinity and flintiness. A solid wine at an attractive price. thedrunkencyclist.com
