Pale lemon green color. Medium nose, with notes of lemon curd and maybe some minerals? Kinda pushing it there. Not that its not unpleasant I'm just not getting much from it. Some plastic notes. Medium body with medium + acidity, the acidic somewhat outrides the flavor but that makes it a rather brisk, quick drinker. Finish is short, in fact so short that the flavor dies while the wine is still in your mouth. Leaves a somewhat bitter, fat residue. With hints of vanilla. Good to drink right now. Would work will at $9 and be quite a value, overpriced at $16.

not a butter bomb (which is what Lori likes in a Chard), but I like the crisp citrus palate and the finish is long and interesting (even if I can't quite describe it because I'm at the end of dinner now).

tropical fruit nose, pineapple, kiwi, lychee, quince, apples, pears, fruit cocktail, fig, and notes of tea, candle, honey, and minerals. medium bodied. nice nose but finishes with a slightly bitter ear wax note.

Sauv blanc nose, so zero oak. Sour taste. Barely drinkable.
