Remarkably crisp and lean still. Just a tiny touch of oxidation on the back end, but it was never a plush wine anyway and this bottle was really very fresh.

This is among the best chards I have ever had. All five of us at the table were in complete agreement. This was classy - great use of oak, beautiful acidity - appealed to both new and old world fans. Balance was impeccable and the texture very rich yet elegant. Drinking extremely well right now, but no rush.

Pale yellow; restrained nose of apple and white flowers; medium bodied, nuts, pain grille, good balance between acidity and fruit. Hint of oak. Good concentration and length. A wine of sophistication and class, but probably for the short to medium term. Possibly at its peak now. Estimated maturity: 2007-2011.

Not in the best shape. Not totally oxidized but not right either and not holding together in the glass. Uuurgh.
