Lemon, green papaya, iron, paraffin, herbal, sea salt, ever so light toast flavor. Delicious and damn near perfectly balanced. Thanks Richard!

One of my favorite chards. Lots of citrus, acidity and minerality but rounds out in the finish. Another excellent vintage of this wine.

Would have easily called this a white burg blind, no hesitation. White stone fruit on the nose and the good savory citrus zest on the palate. Good acidity with a pleasant finish. Could develop but love it now.

Elegant apple-flavored Chardonnay. Acidic and light. Very European in style. Not my favorite style of Chardonnay, but well-made.

A very fine vintage of this wine. Retains some of the signature electric acidity and saline notes but also has a more finessed and rich overall feel than in prior vintages. Really good

Earthy, medium ripe, slightly honeyed apple. Explosive acid. Salty. Hint of fennel as it comes to room temp.
