Golden color in the glass, clear looking throughout. Nose of matchstick, butterscotch and hazelnut. Flavors of cream, vanilla, yellow pear and apple torte. Light to medium acidity, medium to full bodied. Drink now.

Deep yellow gold, clear, dense gold hue and looked orange in some light. Massive oak on the nose, vanilla, sharp floral notes, pear, and saline notes. The tastes are apple, ginger, grapefruit zest, spice, and creamy mineral notes. The acidity is nice and this has a nice, very flavorful and spicy finish.

Clearly an older chard, darker yellow in color, nose is of butterscotch, slightly spritzy in fact small bubbles nucleating on glass , definitely over the hill but still pleasant to drink, long finish that is pleasing

Definitely a slightly off bottle. Nose was subdued showing fait aromas of medium dark apple cider. Some yellow bananas and light nuts and caramel also in play. Palate is immediately effervescent on the tip of the tongue. Never really gets into that WOW factor category at all. Like I said, the nose was muted and showed a bit of tropical fruit, roasted nuts and vanilla. Not much acidity, just this fuzz that never blew off. Finish was somewhat complex but fell short in length. Came across to acid driven on the back end.
