December Guy's Dinner (Our Farm in NJ): Brought by Garth to the “Guy’s dinner”, then PnP on his arrival. Lovely golden yellow color, showing little to no oxidation for a 12 year old Chard. Really good depth and complexity here while clearly of the Cali Chard style it has good acidity and balance with creamy lemon curd, minerals, peach and buttered toast notes but layered and in control in all dimensions. While not normally my favorite style this is well executed and quite delicious, showing as fresh and lively despite its age.

At a grant writing meeting with Garth. Liquid oaky goodness. Great structure and gravitas.

Good but perhaps a little over the top.

This is tasting amazing. I cannot imagine it getting much better. Simply stunning. I'm gonna save a few bottles but drink the rest.
