Not my favorite chard., but a decent offering, nonetheless. Ripe apple and pear, moderately silky mid palate, and a little-to-sharp acidic finish. Much better on day 2.

very nice wine that allowed the oak to add complexity, without overpowering. Each taste allowed the wine to remind you that there was more to it, not just a bit of fruit or some wood.

Vin invitant à la première olfaction. En bouche, il est rond sur des saveurs de poire, de pêche avec des notes boisées. Il ne s'est pas révélé un bon compagnon de crevettes tandoori.

Sonoma side of Carneros. 8 months in French barrel, 10% new. Not sure about malo but it doesn't come across as overly buttery. Nice balanced example of CA Chard. Apple, pear fruit shines.
