Subtle sweetness on a dry white was unexpected of a southern Italian white - good thing I didn’t have to try this blind, I’d have guessed something Alsatian. That said, it was great. — 2 years ago

From one of the premier sites in Santa Maria Valley, this small production Chard is perfumed and bright. Nicely sculptured medium body. Lively and delicate palate.
I like the style here. — 3 years ago

Classic Central Coast Pinot notes -- cherries, green herbs, and flowers -- done in a silky smooth, balanced, incredibly lush style. I could drink wine like this every day. And would, if I could afford it! — 5 years ago

The cork looks fine, or a bit too perfect for a bottle approaching 20 years?

The nose offers classic, appealing notes of toasted hazelnut, baked apple, and faded honey for a mature Chard. However, on the palate, the fruit has receded, leaving the acidity bordering on sour.

Slightly over the hill, it’s nevertheless a good experience. — 10 months ago

Opened this wine on Saturday to have with a crab cake dinner and it was okay with some citrus notes but seemed a bit closed. Had it again on Thursday evening and it just took off with plenty of lemon, peach and some flowers. The finish had a good dose of acidy which off set the sweet fruitiness. Excellent balance and very enjoyable wine. — 6 years ago

Fruit comes from the Sierra Madre and Peake Ranch vineyards. Medium lemon color with aromas of white flesh fruits and spicy notes. On the palate, flavors of apple and pineapple with slight citrus notes spice and lively acidity. Medium finish ending with fruit and spice. — 2 years ago

This time around, I have to assign a slight decrement as it just is a hair below my 93+ standard. Still great, I just think my agnosticism toward Malbec is ultimately emerging. This Chilean interpretation, however, is unique and complex.

Cedar bark, black cherry, forest berries and clay. Soft mouthfeel, creamy, red berries and licorice... transitions into bright acidity before tobacco and dark fruits on the finish. Solid length and complexity, bright fruit with rustic charm. Stainless ferment then 12 months in barrique. Food wine - paired with blackened, cedar smoked salmon. — 8 years ago
