Stupendous acidity on a mid weight frame. Somewhat unusual waxy and open tannic structure, and there is a mushrooms/truffly aroma reminiscent of Chenin Blanc, but I think it's just old American oak barrels, which it could do without. The raw material here is fantastic

Hints of sea breeze, guava, pineapple, little American oak spice, dabble of glycerin and decent texture. For $29, this is an opening act to more serious (old world styled) Chards that won't be boo'd off stage.
