Great Chardonnay. Nice fruity balance with a hint of oak and not too much vanilla.

Tropical fruit, floral, mushroom and vanilla. Smells creamy. M acid, body and intensity. Short finish.

Full of apple and pear flavors with a splash of citrus and a slight touch of butter. Very low on the oak. Paired nicely with Mediterranean food such as spanikopita, Israeli salad, and chicken shwarma.

Wonderful chard to accompany summer grilling from one of the few biodynamic vineyards in the world! Nice and buttery. A Sonoma County fave.
