The wine looks Light gold colored. The legs are Fast. It smells like Herbes de Provence, Stems, Jasmine Leaves, and Honeydew. It tastes like Stoniness, Lemon, Bready, and Herbes de Provence. It is a bit off-balance and slightly hot. The body is Light/Medium. The wine has Smooth texture. The wine finishes Long but lacks the pleasantness I have experienced with other GF Chards. I have know idea and could be wrong on this but I am guessing that this is from relatively young vines. If that is the case then the winemaker had probably done the best that they could do with these grapes. If you don't like big oaky Chards then you will like this. It is very good, just not excellent.

Big, rich, buttery. Still had good acidity. Refreshing and nice. Less apple and pear notes than I would have expected.
