No Orville Redenbacher Movie Theater to see here, folks. Caramelized apple w/ crumble topping, poached pear, sweet Meyer lemon, Creme anglaise, and dare I say a little fresh linen/mineral on the nose? Palate is creamy but with a medley of fruit, buttered, grilled pineapple, Key lime pie, and bruleed sugar. High alcohol always off-putting in these chards as is the RS, but otherwise this is actually pretty tasty and well-made for the style. Cougarin out. I'm sure all my somm friends will judge--oh well!
Addendum: okay started to get more buttery as it warmed up. Heavy on the finish. — 10 years ago
