Both my last two bottles were oxidized one worse than the other. Not unexpected at this age. Though sometimes other vintages of this have lasted in the past.

December Guy's Dinner (Our Farm in NJ): Brought to our Guy’s night by Glenn. Medium golden yellow color. Fairly fresh showing little to no oxidation. Nose is a bit toasty, a little more than I remember previous bottles of this I have tried. Acidity is good, with caramel, butterscotch and ever so slight lemon on the palate. Moderately long finish. Good texture and richness.

Decanted and tasted over 2+ hours, as noted in some previous notes this does need the air to settle down. This bottle was clearly more mature than some previous ones. It was brilliant, medium to dark golden yellow with a distinctly buttery and caramel nose which is much different than previous tastes when younger that were more mineral, acid and fruit driven. Great texture on the palate, rich and slightly honied. Flavors are creamy with a nutty edge that borders on oxidized but isn't, rather just older with a nice long finish.

Decanted about 2 hours before tasting. Well balanced Chard with all the usual elements, Medium golden yellow color, low to moderate acidity, buttery nose and flavor profile along with lemon citrus and hazelnut. Paired superbly with a caramelized onion tart and smoked salmon combo described in a previous note...the wine and food flavors really "popped" together.

Chez Dave, lots of butterscotch, butter, oak. Round and mount filling.
